To provide an answer to the question "How many projects are created each year?"

We need to implement and test the features required to use Groundhog to answer the question in the title of the issue. We then have to use it to actually answer the question.

If we take into consideration only 2000 random projects, the result is: {2007=1, 2008=1535, 2009=71, 2010=90, 2011=123, 2012=125, 2013=55}

What is our approach to answering this? How many projects are created on GitHub by language? By organization? by user?

@gustavopinto, I believe your answer might pretty much be what the professor is asking for. @fernandocastor, could you say it?

@gustavopinto, where is the code used to get this data?

[fernandocastor]

Gustavo, I had completely forgotten about your answer. This data is crazy. How can it be that there were 1535 projects created in 2008 when Github was still not popular and only 125 in 2012?

Hmm. These results are quite non-sense, but right now I don't remember why. I'll check again and report back.
