Hi, lately I've been working on the new summary of Python tracker issues. This is the result. On 10/08/2010 16.39, Python tracker wrote:
ACTIVITY SUMMARY (2010-08-01 - 2010-08-07)
This is the period that is considered for the following stats. By default it shows the activity of the last week. (This was supposed to be the report for last week, but it's from Monday to Sunday instead of from Saturday to Friday because I specified the wrong dates.)
Python tracker at http://bugs.python.org/
To view or respond to any of the issues listed below, click on the issue. Do NOT respond to this message.
Issues stats: open 2640 (+35) closed 18679 (+194) total 21319 (+57)
The +35 means that there are 35 more issues opened since the last week. This is not the number of issues that have been created during the last week, but the number of new issues that have been created or reopened that are still open. Also note that 'pending' and 'languishing' are considered as 'open' too. The +194 means that are 194 more issues closed since last week that are still closed. Both the open and closed issues are listed later. The +57 means that overall the tracker has 57 more issues since last week. This also mean that about 25 issues created this week are already closed (i.e. 57 new - (35 still open - 3 older that got reopened) = 25 issues).
Open issues with patches: 1112
This is the total number of open issues with the 'patch' keyword.
Issues opened (35) ==================
#8821: Range check on unicode repr http://bugs.python.org/issue8821 reopened by pitrou [...]
This is the list of *all* the issues created or reopened during the last week *that are still open*.
Recent issues with no replies (15) ==================================
#9535: Pending signals are inherited by child processes http://bugs.python.org/issue9535 [...]
This is the list of the open issues with only 1 message, sorted by creation date. The list is limited to max 15 issues but is not limited to the last week. This means that issues older than a week are included here if less than 15 issues with only 1 message have been created this week.
Issues waiting for review (15) ==============================
#1474680: pickling files works with protocol=2. http://bugs.python.org/issue1474680 [...]
This is the list of issues with 'patch' or 'needs review' keywords or 'patch review' stage that have been active during the last week. The list is limited to max 15 issues.
Top issues most discussed (10) ==============================
#9079: Make gettimeofday available in time module http://bugs.python.org/issue9079 42 msgs [...]
This is the list of issues with activity in the last week sorted by number of message. This list is limited to max 10 issues.
Issues closed (154) ===================

This is the list of *all* the issues closed in the last week *that are still closed*. Since this list might be quite long I put it at the end, to make it easier to reach the other lists. The previous report also had the average and median durations of open issues. While I was refactoring the function that calculated them, I realized that these values are not so useful/clear so I decided to remove them. These values could be added back if they are needed, but it might be more interesting to know how long does it usually take for an issue to be closed, rather than for how long the open issues are around. For more information see http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue284. Best Regards, Ezio Melotti P.S.: Thanks to R. David Murray that helped me out with the testing and to all the people who provided (and will provide) feedback.

Hi, lately I've been working on the new summary of Python tracker issues. This is the result.
Thanks for working on this, Ezio!
Issues stats: open 2640 (+35) closed 18679 (+194) total 21319 (+57)
The +35 means that there are 35 more issues opened since the last week. This is not the number of issues that have been created during the last week, but the number of new issues that have been created or reopened that are still open. Also note that 'pending' and 'languishing' are considered as 'open' too.
How about changing the label to 'not closed' to make that clear?
Issues opened (35) ==================
#8821: Range check on unicode repr http://bugs.python.org/issue8821 reopened by pitrou [...]
This is the list of *all* the issues created or reopened during the last week *that are still open*.
I wonder if it would be useful to split this into two tables, one for new issues still open and one for reopened issues. I think the mental space in which one considers re-opened issues is different from the one for new issues. In particular, a developer who doesn't have time to scan the new issues might notice a reopened issue they were involved in but haven't yet looked at their 'nosy' email about. Perhaps not worth the effort, it's just a thought.

For both of these I think it is important that the fact that they are limited to 15 be mentioned in the section header. The issues needing review is a great addition, probably every bit as valuable as the no replies report. I hope that it, too, will draw on the previous weeks if there are less than fifteen that were active in the current week?
Top issues most discussed (10) ==============================
#9079: Make gettimeofday available in time module http://bugs.python.org/issue9079 42 msgs [...]
This is the list of issues with activity in the last week sorted by number of message. This list is limited to max 10 issues.
I've already talked with Ezio in IRC about the fact that this list represents a regression from the old report, since the old report gave the issues with the most messages *during the week* whereas his current looks at the *total* message count for any issue that has had *any* activity during the current week. He's going to fix that.
Issues closed (154) ===================

It would be lovely if we could manage to get this one to be the longest table in the report each week :) -- R. David Murray www.bitdance.com

Thank you for removing the duplication of listing issues opened and closed twice. I otherwise pretty much agree with RDM's comments. -- Terry Jan Reedy
