Web Platform Doc Sprint Dashboard

Hi Renoir,

in last weeks Doc-Sprint-In-A-Box-athon™ Scott and Eliot thought I should point you to a dashboard fr0zenice (David Kirstein) and me have built, to visualize analytics data at Doc Sprint events. It summarizes recent edits in MediaWiki based upon its API and an array of WPD usernames (gathered via a Google Doc). Basically we asked people at Doc Sprints to input their username into this given Google Doc (in Form-Mode) and had an easy and beautiful dashboard - limited to the actual attendees of the Sprint - and pretty useful for doing raffles and also collecting (rought) accomplishment stats.

You can find the repo here: https://github.com/webplatform/DocSprintDashboard

Some images of the dashboard in action:

Not sure about what could be exposed using Piwik to replace or add up to the JSON pulled out of MediaWiki, but maybe a nice alternative to visualize whatever data you planned to fetch?

If there are any questions please feel free to reach out to fr0zenice and me. I have just updated the documentation of the dashboard a bit and added some screenshots so hopefully it is now even easier to setup for everybody.

Cheers,
*Jay
