I’m unsure of the overall value of this exercise. Simply ask the PTLs what the 
“health” of the project is. An honest PTL will tell you, and that’s the only 
type we should elect.

Publish metrics if you want (we already do), but I would avoid trying to draw 
conclusions from them. We do not have the luxury (if you can even call it 
that!) of creating and maintaining a project-introspection framework ala what 
you might see in corporate development shops. Even considering what metrics are 
“useful” for specific purposes (e.g. what “useful”/reliable implications can 
you draw from them) takes too much time away from the real work.

Hi Ray,

thanks for posting the initial cut. IMHO a "composite score", as proposed on 
the page, could be *very* misleading, especially for projects which do most of 
the work upstream. So unless we track all upstream repos and upstream Jiras (or 
similar), I would suggest to *not* compute a composite score but evaluate 
things qualitatively only.

Thanks, Frank

All,

I had an action item from last week to start a wiki page for the "project 
health metrics".  You can find a proposal page at 
https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/PROJ/Project+Health+Metrics.

Please add your comments/feedback via email or directly on the wiki page.  I 
listed four activity areas that was discussed on the TSC call, but feel free to 
add other activities that the community should consider.

Thanks,

Ray
