Even if it's too tempting to define the first
prototype thinking first
on tools or data available, you are encouraged to start by proposing
what questions do you want actually answered. What community trends do
you want to know?
A first proposal to stir your pros and cons:
=== Developers ===
* [[Developers]] with [[Gerrit]] access.
** Reviewers.
** Core developers with merge permissions.
** Active in the past week / month / year.
** WMF employees, other MediaWiki professionals, hobbyists.
** Countries where they work from.
* New accounts.
** How many requests (approved, declined?) per week / month / year.
** Primary motivation: new or existing project - which projects.
** WMF employees, other MediaWiki professionals, hobbyists.
** Countries where they work from.
=== Software projects ===
* [
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/admin/projects/ Projects in Gerrit]
** Types of project: MediaWiki core, extensions, mobile, infrastructure...
** Active in the past week / month / year.
** Officially supported.
** Considered stable, beta, experimental.
* Data per project:
** Commits (merged, rejected, waiting) and reviews.
** Committers and reviewers.
** WMF employees, other MediaWiki professionals, hobbyists.
** Countries where they work from.
I wonder how much of this can already be extracted with
http://gerrit-stats.wmflabs.org/ . /me must look deeper.
See

- in few days we should have agreed on the first and most important
trends we want to visualize.
PS:
http://www.ohloh.net/p/mediawiki/contributors seems to be stuck in svn?
