[sldev] sljirastats.com Linden Metrics Report

[Jason Giglio]

Sljirastats.com is now several months old.  Here are some interesting
damn lies.

Unresolved Issues (Bug and Feature) by project:
VWR - 2910/6490 - 45% Unresolved
SVC - 1239/2156 - 57% Unresolved
WEB - 286/607   - 47% Unresolved
MISC -  310/952 - 33% Unresolved

SVC is the least effective project, WEB is the second worst.

"Open" bugs have been on a steady climb.  It started at 1547 when
sljirastats.com began collecting data, and is now at 2717.   This means
we are averaging 8.6 additional unresolved bugs per day.  This is after
subtracting fixed and resolved issues.  This number is a critical
metric; Linden Lab is falling more and more behind every day.

"Fixed Internally" has bounced around, reaching a low of about 90
issues, and is near its high right now of 140 issues.  No significant
trend has been observed in Fixed Internally issues.

"Open Patches" started around 70, climbed to about 110, and plateaued
there for several months.  In the last few days about 10 patches have
been resolved.

78 unresolved patches are more than 3 months old.
34 unresolved patches are more than 6 months old
	-23 of which are bug patches.

Importation of bugs seems to be going on at a steady clip, however
actual resolution of the bugs seems to be slow going.

Peaks are correlated across the board with the release of new major
feature branches, such as Windlight, Mono, Havok4.  The week after a
major feature branch comes out, we see a spike of about 100 additional
issues.

SVC-472 and SVC-85 remain the most hated bugs, for most of the time that
sljirastats has existed.

Likewise, MISC-208 is the highest voted feature request for many months,
by a huge margin.
