How the statistics page looks as of today

hello,

 I have observed issues with the statistics of the project on Eclipse Website. In particular it is about the project eclise/sw360:

https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.sw360/who

The main discomfort we have is that for Siemens we have contributed more than 50% to sw360 in the past 3 months, but it is not listed as such in the "Who is involved page"

I think the problem is that there are two repos mixed in one:

https://github.com/eclipse/sw360
https://github.com/eclipse/antenna

this is confusing, because the antenna project is listed separatedly on 

* github (as listed above)
* Eclipse PMI
* projects.eclipse.org
* Bugzilla / bugs.eclipse.org

Only the statistics page is mixing the data together. I was reported this confusion now for the secopnd time by persons, because persons, who look at the statistic when exploring the sw360 portal, see a wrong image about what is happening at eclipse/sw360

Would there be any chance to improve the acknowledgement of the contributions from Siemens? right now the contributions to eclipse/sw360 from Siemens look really marginal.

Kind regards, Michael

PS. attaching the PDF file just for preserving how it looks today for they case there will be updates to the data.

The existing implementation (which you've correctly interpreted includes the activity of the subproject) conforms to the original requirements. Unfortunately, if we change this, I will get requests to change it back; this is an example of how it is impossible to please everybody.

I'll grant that many of the semantics around subprojects are just plain weird. It's not clear to me that Eclipse sw360 and an Eclipse SW360 Antenna benefit from the subproject relationship; perhaps the right solution is to make Antenna a direct Technology subproject. If you feel strongly about this, my recommendation is that you ask the project leads to consider this.

Note that breaking the subproject relationship is primarily organizational and should have no impact on project resources or committers.

We (Lars and I) are ambivalent and leave it for now. Having both being visible at the same time is a good thing. Thanks for your answer. Kind regards, Michael
