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.

Hello Samad,
I was sent a copy of your comment. I would like to know when you called Coverity, and which department, or who you spoke to, if you still have that information.
We don't have a set limit on the number of projects included in the Scan, so either your call was before some of the project was planned out, or I need to do some internal communication to prevent an incorrect message like 'a limited number of projects' from being repeated again.
There are limited resources of course, since we don't have an infinite number of build machines, but I've never turned a project away because of how many projects we have in the Scan already.
There is a backlog of requests for adding new projects, but to get in the queue, submit your project to scan-admin@coverity.com, if you have not done so already. I don't know the name of your project, so I can't proactively check the queue before sending this reply.
