Proposal on metrics for outstanding GitHub PRs and issues

[Ing. Martin Koci, MBA]

Hello,

apologize for email format (copy). Anyway, here are details:

**

To track the number of actual opened PRs from GitHub and expose it 
publicly. Tracked on daily basis. Concrete requirements/metrics below:


 * How many PRs in total
 * How many Issues in total (features, questions, bugs, regressions, ...)
 * How many of PRs are waiting for review
 * How many of PRs are waiting for an update
 * Optionally: PRs Removal Efficiency
 o How many PRs were closed vs. opened during a period of
   time/-/It's PRs Removal Efficiency - that is the extent to which
   the development team is able to handle and remove the valid PRs
   or defects (issues) that have been opened.
 o To calculate the PRs gap, get a count of the total PRs opened
   and the total number of that were closed by the end of the
   cycle. Calculate a quick percentage.
 o Example of defect gap including formula:
 o

OTC F2F proposal

[Ing. Martin Koci, MBA]

Hello,

one suggestion would be to hold OTC F2F in the ICMC conference [1] week 
next year. The ICMC conference is held on September 20-22 2023, Shaw 
Centre, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Though, we might find more comfortable 
(from financial and travelling POV) to meet in Europe.


This is open for discussion.
