 ====== CHAOSS Metrics Committee ====== ====== CHAOSS Metrics Committee ======
  
-The CHAOSS (Community Health Analytics for OSS) Metrics Committee defines implementation-agnostic metrics for assessing open source communities'​ health and sustainability. The CHAOSS Metrics Committee goals are to establish implementation-agnostic metrics for measuring community activity, contributions,​ and health; and optionally produce standardized metric exchange formats, detailed use cases, models, or recommendations to analyze specific issues in the industry/​OSS world. +Page permanently moved to

-All contributions to implementation-agnostic metrics and standards, including associated scripts, SQL statements, and documentation,​ will be received and made available under the MIT License (https://opensource.org/​licenses/​MIT). +

-===== CHAOSS OSS Project Metrics ==== +
-As a community, we will initially focus on four OSS project metrics. The initial four metrics are complex, value-oriented metrics that explain a current state of CHAOSS member needs. The four metrics, and any metric thereafter, must not constructed in ways that incentivize problem behaviors within a community. The complex metrics are constructed from one or more activity metrics. Refer to our __[[oss-health-metrics:​metrics|list of activity metrics]]__ for descriptions of activity metrics.  +
- +
-If, as a community, we should be initially focusing on a different set of metrics, post your comments to the __[[https://​lists.linuxfoundation.org/​pipermail/​oss-health-metrics/​|mail list]]__. This list is flexible and expected to grow over time. We can definitely change our focus as the community sees fit.  +
