Linux Software Map
xteddy.orgI guess the modern equivalent of that would be https://repology.org/
Although the focus is on the version aspect, so descriptions are a bit hidden and I'm not sure they're searchable.
RIP freshmeat
I though that http://freshcode.club/ was the de-facto successor to Freshmeat?
(I stopped using OpenHub/Ohloh to announce releases when they started requiring either an e-mail address or a Github login.)
Would be cool to have a https://anvaka.github.io/map-of-reddit/ of that
There seems to be a bug; the “Description” field seems to have joined lines together without spaces, leading to such things as “It is conformantto” in the description of Bigloo.
Since this isn't the original source of this data, it's possible that this happened to the description contents at some point in the past. In which case it wouldn't be trivial to fix.
The bug is not in the source data:
Begin4 Title: "Bigloo, a Scheme to C compiler" Version: 1.3 Entered-date: 1996-01-01 Description: Bigloo is both a interpreter and a compiler. It is conformant to IEEE Scheme standard with some extensions from which we can site regular parsing or pattern matching. Primary-site: ftp.inria.fr /INRIA/Projects/icsla 4048000 bigloo1.3b.tar.Z Author: Manuel.Serrano@inria.fr (Manuel Serrano) Maintained-by: Manuel.Serrano@inria.fr Copying-policy: Copyleft EndCorrect. I've done no manipulation of the data that has been read in.
The bug is not present in the original LSM data (as I showed in another comment), but is present in the JSON data¹:
You can see that the same bug is also affecting other multi-line fields, like “Primary-site” here, and “Alternate-site” for other projects.{"author":"Manuel.Serrano@inria.fr (Manuel Serrano)","primary-site":"ftp.inria.fr /INRIA/Projects/icsla4048000 bigloo1.3b.tar.Z\n","maintained-by":"Manuel.Serrano@inria.fr","entered-date":"1996-01-01","version":"1.3","keywords":"","original-site":"","description":"Bigloo is both a interpreter and a compiler.
