[Grok-dev] a codeswarm movie for Grok

Hi there,

I ran into someone who did a code swarm movie for Django, and I figured 
I'd try it for Grok.

This is the code swarm view on commit activity for Grok since the 
beginning, in .avi format:

It'd be nice if someone took this and put some nice music under it. :)

I had to make a few patches to the codeswarm conversion tool before it 
properly understood our commit logs, and I also added in support for 
combining multiple commit logs (as we have more than one project). I've 
included the activity in Grok, Martian, grokcore.component and 
grokproject only. It'd be very interesting to do a code swarm for the 
wider Grok + Zope 3 project, but that's more involved and probably 
requires a bit of scripting as it'd be boring to do all the checkouts by 
hand.

Regards,

Martijn
