ACCELERATING OPEN SOURCE QUALITY

In collaboration with Stanford University, Coverity is establishing a new baseline for software quality and security in open source. Under a contract with the Department of Homeland Security, we apply the latest innovations in automated defect detection to uncover some of the most critical types of bugs found in software.

	TOTAL NUMBER OF DEFECTS FIXED (SINCE 03/06/2006):	8,547

February 20th, 2009: David Maxwell speaking at SCALE7x David Maxwell will be presenting at SCALE7x, at 11:30, on Sunday Feb 22nd, in the Kennedy hall. During the expo you will likely find him at the NetBSD booth. February 17th, 2009: Announcing the Coverity Architecture Library An entirely new resource is being released in connection with the Coverity Scan today - the Architecture Library - A collection of architecture data files, and directory and file relationship diagrams for over 2,500 open source software projects, all released under a Creative Commons Attribution license. The Press Release text is available. The Architecture Library is accessible from the toplink on every Scan page. This diagram shows a version of the Apache webserver, displayed at the directory level, with all dependencies between files rolled up into the file's directory. Some minor directories have been omitted to simplify the diagram.

See the Rung1 and Rung2 pages for the current status of the active C and C++ projects on Scan.
