Hi!
First of all, I am very happy to start working with you doing analytics for Wikimedia software.
I have been reading this mailing list archives and your are doing amazing things in Wikimedia analytics.

Hi, today we are starting officially a new project to gather automatic metrics from the Wikimedia tech / MediaWiki community:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Community_metrics#Metrics_dashboard
We have a dashboard in an interim location, moving to Labs soon:
This is an alpha version of the metrics browser we are building for Mediawiki resources. During this week a new version will be uploaded and from it, we can start working together improving it.
The immediate steps (end of this week?) are:
- Moving to Labs. :)
- Scan the sources we want to scan for git repositories, Bugzilla
products and mailing lists.
The main goal is to analyze Mediawiki software so right now git repositories for "mediawiki/core" and all "mediawiki/extensions" (559 projects) are daily analyzed.
For Bugzilla, Mediawiki and Mediawiki Extensions product are being analyzed.
And for mailing lists we need to define the list together. Right now we are analyzing:
http://bitergia.com/projects/mediawiki-dashboard/browser/mls-repos.html
Then we will follow with (end of this month?)
- Agreeing with the community what data to gather about contributors.
- Polish the list of contributors e.g. assigning to people their
different handlers.
In VizGrimoireR we are using tools that help in the process to unifying identities between different data sources: git, bugzilla, mailing list and others. The idea is to have a final page where you can see a contributors activity in all project data sources.
And example:
http://bitergia.com/public/previews/VizGrimoireJS/browser/people.html?id=13&...
This is a feature in which we are working now but I am pretty confident we can have a first version for Mediawiki project before the end of this month.
Gerrit and IRC metrics are on the way (end of August?).
Yes. Gerrit metrics will be available soon. During this week a first version with global Gerrit metrics will be available.
I also expect improvements in the interface, based on our feedback... and our patches
Great!
This dashboard is based on the open source projects Metrics Grimoire and VizGrimoire. Other organizations (prominently OpenStack) are using it as well so more features might come from other stakeholders.
We are working with Bitergia (maintainers or the Grimoire software and other FLOSS metrics related projects) as contractors. Álvaro del Castillo (CCed) is the main contact with the team.
I will be active on this mailing list.
The current contract will run during the next 12 months. The Engineering Community team of the WMF is pushing this effort, and I'm coordinating it. However, this clearly belongs to the Analytics team area. We have agreed to hand over the project at some point during the next 6-12 months.
We will use the Analytics mailing list to inform and discuss this project. Your feedback and help is welcome!
Yes!
It is a pleasure to start working with you guys. Next email, updates about the new metrics browser.
Cheers
