Hello,

Coverity has published its "Coverity Scan Spotlight Python" a couple of hours ago. It features a summary of Python's ecosystem, an interview with me about Python core development and a defect report. The report is awesome. We have reached a defect density of .005 defects per 1,000 lines of code. In 2012 the average defect density of Open Source Software was 0.69.

The internet likes it, too.
