I agree with David.

For example, many projects are now mirrored to github, and github has
very good analytics:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-calcite/pulse

https://github.com/apache/incubator-calcite/graphs/contributors

And, I don't have to log an INFRA JIRA to get them. Which makes both
me and David happy. :)
