=Establish Goals and Metrics=


Q: What goals does your team have for bringing in new contributors and how can you measure if you are successful?
Q: Can you measure participation or contributors today? If so, what metrics can you track?  What goal or metric would you like to achieve for Q1. Alternatively, what metrics would you like to get in place for Q1?


A: We track IRC communication between people not on our core list of contributors in our channel as an indication of the number and involvement of outside contributors in our projects.  It's a very rough metric, but if someone is on IRC and interacting with us, that's a very good sign. We also track the amount that our core contributors are blogging because blogging brings us more visibility across the Mozilla project.
