Or how many times you have had to up grade Firefox? \;\n \;\nThe Linux Changelog Project is an attempt to present statistics for the development and maintenance of Linux Distr ibutions based on publicly available changelog data. By creating a distr o-agnostic view of all changelog updates for a given project\, we can se e how the size and activity of a given distribution compares to its peer s. At the moment only Fedora and Slackware are supported\, but over time more distributions will be added. The end goal is to provide a web inte rface that will allow people to search for and browse the millions of pa ckage updates across all major Linux distributions. \;\n \;\nAs so meone who is largely self-taught in the world of GNU/Linux\, projects li ke this are how I learn about the Linux ecosystem and practice skills th at I apply to my career in IT support. While my experience goes all the way back to the dark days of HAL I'm still surprised by what I find hidi ng in the various corners of the Linux world. Working with the changelog formats of different distributions has challenged hat I thought I knew\ , and I hope other users (new and old) will find it interesting as well. \n\nTags: plug\, linux\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/125 0481105 URL:https://pdxlinux.org/ SUMMARY:Portland Linux/Unix Group General Monthly Meeting: Ben Koenig on a Linux Changelog LOCATION:Oregon Latvian Community Center: 5500 SW Dosch Road\, Portland O R 97239 USA SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
