You'll have to talk with him about them (CCed). These are generated using commercial software called SAS. My code is rather ugly and I thought it was doubtful that anyone else would be using SAS, so aside from embarassing myself with my ugly code, I didn't think the source would be all that useful to publish. I kind've like slicing and dicing data so this really started as a "hey look at this" thing and now lots of folks use it, which I think is cool. I'm happy to keep generating these for as long as the database is in gnats - I have it set up as an automated cron job that's been running for several years. Sometimes something happens and it fails, but I generally get it back up and going fairly quickly. Hmmm ... currently it looks like the data hasn't been updated since the 17th - I'll have to look into that.
