I am generally against us standing up our own service that does this.
We've had a couple of these systems over the years. (pulse.a,o for
instance). It takes a non-trivial amount of work to setup and maintain
such a system, and invariably it falls apart.

Additionally, there are free services that begin monitoring projects
either on request or when they are noticed, and I am curious what we
really hope to gain by doing it ourselves that a site like open hub
doesn't provide. In example:
https://www.openhub.net/p/npanday

I do agree that things like bitergia provide much deeper sense of
analytics, but wonderful if it's really necessary for our purposes.
