Abstract

Google and other web-based search engines give users immediate access to a plethora of knowledge. Mailing lists however, go unnoticed, and in search- ing for knowledge about software architecture for making important design decisions, they present an ideal source of information. In this study, we pre- pare the tools necessary to fetch, process, and categorize the architectural design decisions found in the mailing lists of several open-source projects from the Apache Software Foundation. An analysis will present information on the types of decisions, their prevalence, and the patterns these decisions form through a thread of emails. Several keyword-based search queries will be evaluated against the dataset to determine their effectiveness at retrieving the most relevant information.
