A quick update: I talked to Patrick Earley and he informed me that the Community Health Metrics Kit project was put on ice last year due to lack of resources.

Hi,

In my last meeting with Joe they were still collecting requirements, but that was before Joe got shifted around the org and I'm guessing the project is now done.
This effort is exactly what I'm talking about in my email to product-all and tech-all yesterday (subject: The Question and Answer Flow). Here we have a set of questions about community health that we've stopped asking because it hasn't been possible to get answers. I suggest folks who care about this chime in there and point to how these metrics would help them.
I wanted to share this project that I have just proposed for a project grant:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Community_Health_Metrics:_Und...
We are team of 3 researchers from Eurecat, a research center in Barcelona. We have quite an extensive experience doing research on Wikipedia both on content and user interactions.
We understand that the project is quite ambitious and we would like to involve the community and people that have already worked on the topic (for example, we have asked Aaron Halfaker to be an advisor for the project).
For this reason, we would love to have the feedback from this list, and especially yours, Dan.
We want to make a prototype dashboard as an output of the project so that the community can see the results of our metrics. To be fair, let me stress the fact that we want to build a /prototype/. We are researcher, our main expertise lies in the metrics and analyses. Also, we are interested in studying editor drop-off, so the metrics that we will focus on will be the one that we find are relevant with respect to that.
I hope that you could find this project useful and I hope to read your feedback.
