I haven't looked at the code, so I don't know the details of the algorithm that is actually used, but from what Ezio said your example is *not* correct. The numbers in parenthesis are the number of issues opened/closed in the past week that are *still* open or closed. So open would certainly not be +2. I'm not sure if it would be +0 or -1 without looking at the code. I agree that having the delta against open from the previous week would be the most helpful. --David _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
