After a second thought it may be of relevant after all, but no probably
for managers. If you have read the post I've wrote were I related these
issues with process/project content development and specially Quality
you will understand what I'll say next.

As I've explained concerning analyzing metrics for Quality under the
scope of Content Management, Quality should be looked as a spectrum. The
same reasons can be used to sustain that fresh and up to date content
metrics need to be looked at as a spectrum. 

As I explained a managers do not care much for metrics derived by the
scheduler. On the other side for a CMS Administrator the metrics
provided by scheduler audit information is of importance within the
scope of maintaining available fresh and up to date content. For
instance it can answer how many articles, views etc failed to be
published due to problems concerning the scheduler.

For writers and editors maintaining content up to date can be measured
by analyzing if they are up-to-date concerning the their tasks and the
content they need to work on.

And so on.
