You are comparing time evolution with backlog time distribution. This two time
series are the same at the final value, but during the past time, the time
distribution will have more "new changesets".

time distribution new changesets in A = new backlog time distribution
changesets in A + closed changesets between A and now.

In "closed changesets between A and now"  if A = NOW, this value is zero and
both numbers in NOW should be the same.

And doing this analysis:

"date": ["May 2013", "Jun 2013", "Jul 2013", "Aug 2013", "Sep 2013", "Oct
2013", "Nov 2013", "Dec 2013", "Jan 2014", "Feb 2014", "Mar 2014", "Apr 2014",
"May 2014", "Jun 2014", "Jul 2014", "Aug 2014", "Sep 2014"]
"ReviewsWaiting_ts": [418, 546, 669, 798, 827, 998, 1113, 1191, 1233, 1286,
1258, 1316, 1455, 1565, 1670, 1657, 1571]
"new": [49, 21, 25, 24, 14, 46, 39, 33, 62, 76, 82, 64, 126, 161, 284, 267,
197]

where new is for backlog metric, and ReviewsWaiting_ts is time evolution time
series, in Sep 2014 you have 1570 for new (adding all values for "new") and
1571 for ReviewsWaiting_ts (getting the last point).

It is also the same case for the waiting for reviewer metric.

We are not showing the Sep 2014 data because it is incomplete, as we decided in
the past.
