I've spent a few cycles putting together some more thoughts and tools to measure the engagement of contributors in OpenStack community. The grand plan is to build a beautiful dashboard using business intelligence tools, like Pentaho or something similar. I've started putting down thoughts and ideas about the datawarehouse on http://etherpad.openstack.org/CommunityMetrics. Before we get there we'll need raw data, so I've started playing around with the tools provided by the folks at FLOSSMetrics https://projects.libresoft.es/, especially mailingliststats and CVSanaly2. CVSanaly2 is a tool that extracts information out of source code repository logs and stores it into a database. It works well with git, so I fooled around with it on the nova, swift and glance repositories (see the attached plot, as an example). I'll publish the queries I used on the wiki early next wee. I'm planning also to play with gitdm to see the difference. I haven't spent too much brain power on the analysis of discussions on mailing list because the mlstats tool expects the archives to be in a form that we don't have at the moment. I'll do this later, or if somebody wants to help me grab me on IRC (I'm reed there). Hope you like this and makes you want to tell me what you want to see tracked and measured. cheers, stef
