  Does the 28% figure also include the POD? That would both make sense and make it quite meaningless IMHO....

  I agree, ohloh's metrics harks of pointy-hair managers who count lines of code, or number of check-ins but not what is actually written in them. I don't want to know how many lines of comment a project written in a less verbose language like Java or C# would require (less verbose syntax == more verbose code) to satisfy such a ratio.

  Like other people here, I'm also not a fan of excessive commenting. Like Martin Fowler says in the book Refactoring, often the need of a comment is indicative that the code is not clear or factored enough. So I think that Ohloh measurement is silly and should be ignored, because it's not indicative of the real world worth of your code.
