GNU, GPL, Open Source Coverity has published the 2008 edition of its Open Source Report. The report uses static code analysis on C, C++, and Java source code to determine the quality of the code. These reports are funded by the US Department of Homeland Security and supported by Stanford University, and are part of the US government's Open Source Hardening Project. The report is based on over two years' worth of data from Coverity Scan.

I worked on an open-source project used extensively in the systems biology field. (Several major international research institutions are involved in its development.) I called Coverity and asked them if we could use their program for our project. They said they only allow a limited number of open-source projects to use their program for free.
