Hi,

I've been working on some podling health metrics to help make reporting easier. 
The tool gives a quick look at trends and highlights where support might be 
needed, so writing reports should be simpler. The metrics can be generated 
automatically, giving podlings a starting point and saving time on manual data 
collection.

I made a script that generates health metrics for 3, 6, and 12-month periods. 
It checks release threads, community activity, and trends in PR and review 
diversity. The script uses overlapping time frames, which makes trends easier 
to spot and helps smooth out any noise. I’m not sure if using separate periods 
would be better, but this approach seems clearer for now.

This is just a proof of concept, so there might be some errors. The metrics 
focus on developer activity, but it's still important for podlings to share 
details about non-code contributions and community involvement too. This tool 
isn't meant to replace the Clutch. It's just here to make creating reports 
easier. You can find the script and some sample reports here:
https://github.com/apache/incubator/tree/master/tools/health

(Sample reports for Polaris, StreamPipes and Halimiton are included in the 
reports directory.)

I hope you'll try out the tool, review the script and sample reports, and share 
your thoughts. Feedback will help guide its development/adoption, so please let 
me know if there are any features or changes you'd like.

Kind regards,  
Justin
