Determine projects to which I'm a contributor

I'd like to obtain the raw data behind my contribution summary that I
see when I log in and visit this page:

https://www.ohloh.net/accounts/wez

If I request this (which is not documented in your API docs):

http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/XXX/projects.xml

I get a list of the projects that I manage, but not those for which
I'm listed as a contributor.

I tried this:

http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/XXX/contributions.xml

but it seems to give me a subset of all the contributions from everybody.

Any advice you can provide will be gratefully received,

Hi wez,

Unfortunately, Ohloh does not currently provide this data through the XML API.

The presence of the last URL that you list (http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/XXX/contributions.xml) actually appears to be a bug in our URL routing -- that URL should not even exist, so I'm not surprised that you are getting invalid data in response. I'm more surprised that it does anything at all :-)

I can create a ticket to add your contributor data to the API, but I must admit that this is unlikely to be implemented soon.

Thanks,
Robin

Thanks for the response, I'll soldier on without that information in the meantime.
