Many thanks to Daniel for fixing the issue with the Kibble box, but ...

For whatever it's worth, the “community health metrics" are interesting, but 
hardly urgent. When the directors read the reports, they tend to be much more 
interested in your interpretation of how the community is ticking along, rather 
than a list of numbers. Many of the directors have consistently said this - 
numbers are merely data, while your narrative of the community health and 
sustainability is what we’re actually looking for when we read reports.

I might even go so far as to say that a lot of the directors simply skip over 
these statistics, because they don’t convey any actual information.

For example, when I look at your report, I see the list of numbers at the 
bottom, and I’m not sure what they mean. So, "Issue-related emails decreased by 
28% from 1664 to 1208” … does this mean that you’ve achieved better code (ie, 
fewer things to report) or does it mean that users are losing interest? Only 
someone involved in the project has a sense of that. The same kind of question 
applies to the other statistics that you’ve pasted into the report.
