We are pleased to announce the official release of BigBang v0.1.0.This release is a proof of concept. It shows the potential of combining data collected from open collaborative projects with scientific Python tools in one easy package. With six contributors and a host of features, we are off to a great start.
Functionality included in this release:
- Mailman and W3C mailing list crawling.
- .mbox parsing and data cleaning, including invalid date detection.
- Preprocessing functionality for viewing archival data as daily activity and interaction networks.
- Entity resolution with Levenshtein edit distance.
- Email threading.
