@birthmarkbart "What other metrics?" is a big question but one we are constantly thinking about in the CHAOSS Project - chaoss.community. My short answer - it depends on your context and how you are planning to use metrics.

How important are Github stars as a way of monitoring the health/success of an open source project? What other metrics are as important or more important?

If anyone is still at #OSSummit, I have an Ask the Experts session starting now-ish outside of 121/122 (through the sponsor area). Join me to talk about community, metrics, contributor growth / community, OSPOs (or anything else) 😁

Super thankful to be part of the amazing team at the @CHAOSSproj! 💯🎉

@geekygirldawn Happy Birthday @geekygirldawn!!

My 51st year on earth is off to a good start! I had some birthday chocolates for breakfast and a pub lunch with cake.

Super happy to be part of CHAOSS and GSoC!

@ElizabethN Good vibes to Lucy!

Hi friends! Our Lucy can use your good vibes! She has aggressive cancer in her leg & the best way to keep it from spreading & fully relieve her pain is through amputation. Her surgery is tomorrow. I know it's the best thing for her & her prognosis is good, but it's so scary🥺💔

@geekygirldawn Nice!

@germ I’m not sure, but we don’t have harsh winters with freezing temps, so I think it’s normal to see them starting up in Feb.

Paul made shakshuka for dinner tonight and last night we made a lemony cauliflower and chickpea tagine. On an unrelated topic, I also saw some pretty spring flowers on my lunchtime walk today.

In partnership with the @linuxfoundation and the @CHAOSSproj, we surveyed more than 7,000 members of the Global Open Source Community to learn how we can foster inclusive communities. Read the full report of the 2021 Open Source DEI Survey: prn.to/3s5sb5l #AllIn
