Hi Yihao Thanks for the proposal. For the community, I noticed Yihao started this setup days ago, and feel like this project is good to open the statistics of the community to the public. Although we are not treating these statistics as indicators, the number would go higher and drop lower from time to time, such as 1. Before a new release, the traffic of mail list and pull requests will definitely be higher than usual. 2. Time near the public holiday, the traffic would be very few and all places are silent. 3. A stable subproject has nothing to do with, such as our today's LUA script agent.
I want to be clear, these statistics mean nothing but numbers, the trend sometimes matters(only when provided context before the numbers), like our website's google analytics. To deploy this as a new tool, just could provide us some new perspective. We never should take action to increase some numbers or make the graphs seem more attractive, that is never the SkyWalking community's agenda. I could help on finding an env sponsor to deploy this tool if there is no objection.
