reminds me of something I once wrote up about tracking

and the reflexive consequences of that on an open community

I actually love this damn good idea, Nick. Great find. Let's do something
like this in version 0.3

I love this paper on communication styles in the
Linux kernel:
http://www.opensym.org/os2016/proceedings-files/p101-schneider.pdf
Training a classifier to distinguish two particular authors, leaders in
the Linux development community, based on lexical choices. Use of "sorry",
"thanks", "actually", "never" and expletives are most
discriminating.
It makes me wonder whether this would also be an interesting
characteristic of one mailing list compared to another, in addition to
distinguish individual authors. "Where does your open source community fall
on the Actually-Thanks Spectrum (TM)?"
I'd love to see this as part of BigBang, particularly if that kind of
lexical analysis or Bayes classification would be useful for lots of
research questions.
Thanks,
Nick
