Define Metrics to Measure Open Source Success

[smbuthia]

As the Open Source Programme Office grows and matures, we would like to collaboratively define measures of success.

These measures of success will help achieve the following:

• Raise awareness of open source project activities within the organization
• Identify gaps and opportunities that the Open Source Programme Office can support in addressing
• Track compliance, best practices, and set benchmarks for open source projects

These metrics can also help project stakeholders make informed decisions and take corrective action if a project goes off track.

For 2023, we would like to set a minimum of 10 key metrics.
