I'm on the Program Committee for the 5th Workshop on Public Data about Software Development (WoPDaSD 2010), and the paper deadline is coming up in March. I would really love to see you and/or other readers of LWN get this kind of data and analysis together as a workshop paper and submit it there. We don't get so many submissions from outside academia, and that's a shame—I'm confident that this work would be quite well-received.

Were all the pronouncable acronyms already taken?

It's related to INTERCAL ...

"The full name of the compiler is "Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym", which is, for obvious reasons, abbreviated "INTERCAL"."

The acronym is kind of awkward, but the workshop is pretty cool. It works that way sometimes. :-)
