This has a section at the top which included "starred by the PTL" patches. 3) A dashboard generated from gerrit and git data. http://not.mn/swift/swift_community_dashboard.html The "Community Starred Patches" is a list of the top 20 commonly starred patches by the Swift community. Basically, for every person who has gerrit activity around Swift, I pull their stars. From that I can see which patches are more commonly starred. I also weight each person's stars according to their level of activity in the project. This gives a very good idea of what the community as a whole finds important. I've found a role for all of these tools at different times--I don't think one is generally better than another. Right now as we're finishing up a release for Mitaka, all 3 tools are useful for helping coordinate the remaining work. My generate community dashboard isn't done. There's a lot more information I can pull and use to help prioritize reviews. I plan on working on this after the Mitaka release gets cut. Here's a teaser for the next thing I'll be doing: given a person's email, generate an ordered list of patches that person should review or work on to be most effective. --John
