PS I'd recommend doing this in gnuplot or pgfplots or some other scripting graph language: 1) if we have a great way to visualize the bug history, it could be useful for other releases 2) if might be useful for other projects 3) we might want to add extra overlays (e.g. yellow vertical lines for important dates like release candidates or when Phil started checking regtests?) 4) it might be good to subtly change the color of each line. Like, shifting from light green-blue to light blue-green over the course of all 148 lines? or maybe adding a bit of red to each line, corresponding to the number of days it took to close that bug? Scientific visualization is an art unto itself; I could easily spend 3 hours just to produce one really good graph. Exactly what to plot, what shades of colors to use, etc etc... fun times! :) Cheers, - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
