Hi
Some of the indicators you mention already exist. I provide the url in
the rest of the message. Let me know if you need to summarize all this
under a specific "catalog qa page"
Positive measures could include:
New package submission - Count of packages that didn't previously exist
Updated packages - Count of packages that increment their
version number
These are available from : http://www.opencsw.org/get-it/package-statistics/
It's a monthly view
Negative measure could include:
Patched packages - Count of packages submitted that didn't
increment their version number
Pretty much easy to compute (taking in account what is already done)
Neutral but interesting stats could include:
Number of gar managed packages - new or updated packages managed by gar
Number of non-gar managed packages - new or updated packages from
outside of gar
This is available from http://www.opencsw.org/qa/
This page provides several link to the different catagories. You will
find the detailled list of data and instant values. I started to created
some statistics based upon these data. I can push it son now that there
are some data to display :)
-- These speaks to quality if one accepts that packages built and
maintained through gar are both easier to update and/or takeover
Number of package takeovers - indicative of the
stability of the maintainer-ship
It's not too difficult to implement
Other non-catalog stats to report
Track / Report post counts to the various mailing lists -
indicative of the vibrancy of the various constituencies
Wiki updates (Gar/OpenCSW) -
indicative of readily available documentation
OpenCSW site updates -
indicative of the freshness of the site
Existing solution does not cover this. It does not mean it cannot be
done nor it's a bad idea :P It just mean it has tobe done ;)
Cheers
W.
