Introduction

Recently machine learning has started to play a key role in facilitating research in mining diverse software repositories. Open source software systems are becoming ever larger, with many components available online. Available to download are not only source code, but also messages exchanged by the contributors, defect databases and new features requests. All this information amounts to gigabytes of mostly text data that is hard to analyze and summarize efficiently.
Many well-known machine learning techniques can be used to mine this information to make better decisions related to software systems maintenance, and to provide insights about software design and automate triage of defects. It is important that researchers share datasets, methods and procedures and results that can be easily reproduced. 
The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers from software engineering and machine learning to exchange ideas about the current state of practice in mining software repositories.
