+I've produced a [code_swarm](http://vis.cs.ucdavis.edu/~ogawa/codeswarm/)
+visualization of the first 2+ years of ikiwiki's commit history.

+### notes
+
+Interesting things to watch for:
+
+* Initial development of ikiwiki to the point it was getting web edits.
+ (First 2 seconds of video!)
+* Introduction to plugin support, and later, plugin changes dominating code
+ changes.
+* Introduction of openid support and the resulting *swarm* of openid
+ commenters.
+* Switch to git, my name in the logs changes from "joey" to "Joey Hess",
+ and there are more code commits directly from others.
+
+Getting the commit log was tricky because every web commit is in there too,
+so it has to deal with things like IPs and openids. The [[code_swarm_log.pl]]
+script will munge the log to handle these, and it was configured with
+[[code_swarm.cfg]].
+
+Video editing by kino, ffmpeg, ffmpeg2theora, and too many hours of pain.
