+1. Also note that when we defined the project lifecycle we used metrics like the ones mentioned only as guidance rather than something to compute a composite value – and even there, we did not constrain things to metrics in OPNFV only.

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.

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.

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
