Map of Linux Kernel Users (OT)

Map of Linux Kernel Users (OT)

[Claire McLister]

Hi,

  We've developed an automatic email mapping capability from Google Maps 
API.

  To try it out, we mapped origins of emails to this group from October 
2 through October 10th.

The result of this map is at:  
http://www.zeesource.net/maps/map.do?group=478

  Would like to hear what you think of it.

  Best wishes

Claire

(Is this thread OK here or should this go off line? I'm fine either way.)

I also found it interesting. It correctly recognized that I'm in the
Bay Area in California, but it placed me in a group in Palo Alto,
which is not where I really am, and it placed the Palo Alto group
below San Jose which isn't where Palo Alto really is.

None the less, quite interesting.

Thanks. Yes, let's move this offline. I have created a group on Google 
groups, zeemaps@googlegroups.com.

  I found you in Mountain View group, although it still did show 
Mountain View to the south of San Jose, which is clearly wrong. We will 
be fixing this problem soon.

Ok, I know it's silly, but I want that on www.kernel.org somewhere anyway.  
(Probably filtered by "last 12 months" and "people who posted 10 or more 
times...)

Could be fun to watch as it developed over time -- I'm cc'ing this 
message to the 'webmaster' at kernel.org to see if this is feasible.

The webmaster will never get it without the [KORG] in the subject.
