-Klocwork has a static analysis tool (K7) which is similar to Coverity.
-They will run their tool on the Python source code on demand.
-The results are available at:
-
-     https://opensource.klocwork.com/
-
-Currently, only Neal Norwitz has access to the analysis reports.  Other
-people can be added by request.
-
-K7 was first run on the Python 2.5 source code in mid-July 2006.
-This is after Coverity had been making their results available.
-There were originally 175 defects reported.  Most of these
-were false positives.  However, there were numerous real issues 
-also uncovered.
-
-Each warning has a unique id and comments that can be made on it.
-When checking in changes due to a K7 report, the unique id
-as reported by the tool was added to the SVN commit message.
-A comment was added to the K7 warning indicating the SVN revision
-in addition to any analysis.
-
-False positives were also annotated so that the comments can
-be reviewed and reversed if the analysis was incorrect.
-
-A second run was performed on 10-Aug-2006.  The tool was tuned to remove
-some false positives and perform some additional checks.  ~150 new
-warnings were produced, primarily related to dereferencing NULL pointers.
