--- Comment #8 from Quim Gil <[email protected]> ---
I still find your answer slightly confusing:

> In order to get this number, we get the total amount of open and close at
> the end of the month, and the difference is the pending. 

Ok, if this is the case then the number is correct. But then, what does this
have to do with adding the inherited amount of the past month?

The ultimate test:

1. Forget all history in our Gerrit instance and just look at all the
changesets we have now as if they were created during September 2014.

2. Count how many changesets we have in total, from which how many have
status:open, from which how many are waiting for review (no -1, no WIP).

If the numbers still are around the 1563 open - 933 waiting for review
currently declared for August 2014, then the calculation is correct.

Sorry for being a skeptical pain in the ass with this metric, but we need to be
absolutely sure about it. If it is true we will set an alarm because the trend
is really alarming. The worst that could happen to the credibility of our
metrics is that the data is found to be wrong after setting the alarm. Thank
you for your understanding.
