Black Duck Report is Meaningless Without Source Code

,----[ Quote ]
| Black Duck Software recently published some summary statistics about free and 
| open source software license adoption, based on data it collected by crawling 
| the web. The report lists “top 20 licenses that are used in open source 
| projects” and the proportion of projects which use each license, as well as 
| historical figures purportedly representing the number of projects using and 
| planning to use GPLv3 variants for each month of the last two years.

Palamida: Rival snitched open-source database

,----[ Quote ]
| A day later, Palamida cried foul. "After two days of intense investigation, 
| we have confirmed that most of our database has been copied directly--word 
| for word and misspelling for misspelling, with very few original additions to 
| our initial work," said Palamida spokeswoman Melisa LaBancz-Bleasdale, 
| pointing the "blatant plagiarism" finger at Black Duck.
