Erlang support

Please add Erlang programming language support (see http://www.erlang.org/ ). Currently, projects like ejabberd, Wings 3D, and Yaws have wrong metrics because they are written for more than 90% in Erlang (wrong factoids, wrong project cost, amongst others).

entel,

Support for more languages is always on our to-do list because there are a seemingly infinite number of them.

However, we have been hearing about erlang from many people, and there are evidently a lot of projects on Ohloh that use it. I'll push for erlang support, although it will probably take us until after the new year to get it going.

BTW, do you happen to know if the source control repository for the erlang language itself is available? It would be nice to add erlang as a project on Ohloh.

Thanks,
Robin

Ok, I'll look up if they have a repository, but I'm not sure they have one.

Suggestion: maybe you can add some Not supported language detected notification together with the number of lines?

Erlang/OTP is developed with ClearCase from IBM. So there is not yet an accessible repository unfortunately :-(
There are daily snapshots, though, maybe you can use those? See: http://www.erlang.org/download/snapshots/
