Introducing MEPHISTO (aka SWIM before)

Mandriva (Helios project partner) introduced us to SWIM, which was later renamed as MEPHISTO, a project for “Meshing People, Hardware and Software Together” during the Helios WP3 kick-off.

I’ve already blogged about it previously, so you may have already an idea of the pursued goal : adding more semantics to databases of facts about FLOSS projects.

Here are the slides presented by Stéphane Laurière (ODP), for those interested.

I’m looking forward to experimenting with it in the frame of HELIOS, mainly on bugs facts.

Update 2008/03/03 : the mephisto project is now open @Google code, if you’re interested in participating.
