| 11 | Prevent was first run on the Python 2.5 source code in March 2006.
|

| 12 | There were originally about 100 defects reported. Some of these
|
|---|
| 13 | were false positives. Over 70 issues were uncovered.

|

| 15 | Each warning has a unique id and comments that can be made on it.
|
|---|
| 16 | When checking in changes due to a warning, the unique id
|
|---|
| 17 | as reported by the tool was added to the SVN commit message.
|

| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | False positives were annotated so that the comments can
|
|---|
| 20 | be reviewed and reversed if the analysis was incorrect.
