I guess the modern equivalent of that would be https://repology.org/

Although the focus is on the version aspect, so descriptions are a bit hidden and I'm not sure they're searchable.

Also https://www.openhub.net/

RIP freshmeat

I though that http://freshcode.club/ was the de-facto successor to Freshmeat?

(I stopped using OpenHub/Ohloh to announce releases when they started requiring either an e-mail address or a Github login.)

Would be cool to have a https://anvaka.github.io/map-of-reddit/ of that

There seems to be a bug; the “Description” field seems to have joined lines together without spaces, leading to such things as “It is conformantto” in the description of Bigloo.

Since this isn't the original source of this data, it's possible that this happened to the description contents at some point in the past. In which case it wouldn't be trivial to fix.

The bug is not in the source data:

  Title:          "Bigloo, a Scheme to C compiler"
  Version:        1.3
  Entered-date:   1996-01-01
  Description:    Bigloo is both a interpreter and a compiler. It is conformant
                  to IEEE Scheme standard with some extensions from which we can
                  site regular parsing or pattern matching.

Correct. I've done no manipulation of the data that has been read in.
