Neat! I'm finding the icons being used for the table headings unhelpful, though. Can only decipher two from "activity" (recency and issue count, I think).

The information that is valuable to me is... Does a project have: - passing unit tests with reasonable coverage - reported issues, including closed issues - peer review process and continuous integration - a large number of unique contributors - proper versioning - compliant and compatible licensing

Hey Guys, First of all, thanks for the feedback! Regarding the icons, I was trying to build the tables with some sort of visual cues, if it's not helpful, it'll be removed, @cimmanom what do you mean by the second part? @partycoder thanks for the guidance, we'll work hard to get all those data points, i'd even like to add an ability to for advanced user to request a customized summary what'd you think about that? Still looking into figuring out tests though, for now, i've been thinking about importing the tags from the readme

    Cool, we'll make the charts clearer, easy export is indeed in need, taking a look into your suggestions. Also it'll be great if you could send me your report URL to make sure I managed to make it clearer.

      Also, as you can see my screenshot it's look like "Engagements" & "Maintenance" ignored on "Summary" charts. So, as result there only horizontal lines on the graph, instead diamond-shaped graph > send me your report URL Here[0] it is.
