Erich Schubert has been popping up my gaim today with the idea of making a Debtags tag cloud. Indeed, it was missing, so we made it.
Firstly, I added a new feature to tagcoll and generated the tag statistics.
Then, Erich created a python script to generate the tagcloud, on which we then hacked a bit together.
Finally, we came up with two tag maps: one nicely organised by facets, and one folded in a big cloud. Look at the cloud: this is what Debian is made of.
Cool ideas come out, like making subclouds given a tag selection. It's just a simple matter of programming, so they say.
Would they fit in the back of the Etch CD/DVD case?
