bigbang

Bigbang is a toolkit for studying communications data from collaborative projects.

The focus of the early milestones will be on mailing list or listserve analysis, with a focus on Mailman and Sourceforge mail archives, as well as .mbox files.

Installation

Big Bang uses a lot of SciPy packages that use native (e.g. C) code. These need to be installed separately.

You might try to Anaconda Python distribution, which comes with these and other packages installed easily.
