Well, we''ll have to fix that.  I''ve got an account on there.
Unfortunately, looking at the wiki markup for that page makes my eyes
bleed...

I think, the biggest thing I''ve personally learned from DamageControl
was not paying too much attention to that matrix :)

I have added CC.rb to the Matrix document.

I was thinking - there should be another icon to represent an Open
source or Plugin-Based architecture - meaning that even though a
feature does not exist, it can be added via a plugin or modification
of the source.

This is a big advantage over Closed-Source tools or tools which do not
support Plugins.

-- Chad

So, I like what Chad is proposing, but the lesson I learned adding
CC.rb to the matrix is that the more data you put into the chart, the
less valuable it is...

If you look at it as "Whever has the most green icons wins", then you
get the one size fits all solution...
And adding more options means that it makes it harder and harder to
use.  CC.rb is arguably the best solution for doing SVN based Ruby
builds.  But that isn''t really reflected in that long list...

I almost wonder if we need a summary and then a detail page..  Cause
right now, looking at the page today, I am drowning in details!
