A short introduction (10-15min?) to https://wikimedia.biterg.io/ for anyone interested in statistics about our technical community who use our technical infrastructure (Wikimedia Git; Gerrit; Phabricator; IRC; Mediawiki.org).
Followed by questions, (hopefully) answers, discussion.

This is a rather spontaneous session and I'm probably only going to showcase some very basics.
I'm looking forward to comments, feedback, and some questions.

Notes/script used by @Aklapper during the session:

• Goals of this session:
  • 1. Create awareness that this exists
  • 2. Show some basics what you can do (from a user point of view, not admin stuff); about 15 minutes
  • 3. Get feedback, is this useful or not, etc
  • 4. This session will not answer your developer questions about Kibana or Elasticsearch code.
• Grimoirelab platform/suite, under the CHAOSS umbrella of the Linux Foundation, written in Python and all FOSS, ran by Bitergia (company spin-off from a research group at the University of Madrid), also providing services for Mozilla and other organizations
• Gathering activity data from different sources (see the left pane of https://wikimedia.biterg.io ) like Git, Gerrit, Phabricator, IRC, Mailing Lists, mediawiki.org -> indexing -> Database. Does not mean all and any data from those sources is indexed, though (e.g. not GitHub, see T186736).
• UI: if you are used to Kibana, no news for you:
  • Overview, click items like names, repositories, organizations -> filtered view applied. Enable/disable them below text field.
  • Timeframe in upper corner.
  • Exporting short URLs possible via "Share"
  • Textfield for advanced search but need to know exact index names; see "Discover" link in docs. Standard Lucene search syntax, example: `author_bot:false AND author_name:"Foo"
• Questions and answers; discussion
