hingJazz development data: a community perspective

data sets--and the communities around them--often benefit a research community. To contribute to the research community, IBM is making the Jazz development data available via a community led by academic researchers. The contribution of the Jazz development data is important, as this data is the only substantial data set collected by Jazz ® , a platform that records richer data with more types of artifacts and traceability than data collected by existing platforms. In this paper, we describe the technical challenges in preparing this data for a small group of external researchers, with the intent of eventually building a community around the data.
