           Summary: Gerrit metrics about open changesets should ignore -1s
           Product: Analytics
           Version: unspecified

In metrics about open Gerrit changesets like
http://korma.wmflabs.org/browser/gerrit_review_queue.html , those changesets
with -1 should be ignored, because from the point of view of the maintainers
they are not in their ToDo list anymore. If those -1 are not touched, they will
be eventually abandoned.

This should be applied to all graphs about "pending submissions", "open
changesets".

Maybe we should apply a delay in order to avoid graphs changing radically just
because a changeset can be pending on Monday, -1 on Tuesday, pending again on
Wednesday...

Let's start ignoring those that have been updated more than 30 days ago and
have -1. Based on the graphs we get, we may want to fine tune this.
