(comments also added to the wiki). I think we should layer this. We already have the parsers for the reports, and could attach listeners that generate/update the metric data.
>From there, we need an aggregation step (Which the reports need to do also), and then the dashboard is a summary of those aggregations, but could also be a summary on a per-project level. I'd like to see this work without a database to get to this stage, and then add historical ability as a "bonus". How does this sound?
