 There are four official metrics repositories right now:

  - `metrics-db`:  Java program to collect and possibly sanitize metrics
 data
  - `metrics-utils`:  Java and Python tools to analyze metrics data
  - `metrics-web`:  JSP-based website to aggregate and display statistics
  - `metrics`:  Technical reports and code snippets for past metrics
 analyses

 I didn't use the `metrics` repository for quite some time now, mostly
 because it has no useful structure.  Instead, I store technical report
 sources and code snippets on my local hard drive.  Dear Trac, this is
 under the seal of confession, right?

 Here's what I'd like to change:

  - Reorganize the `metrics` repository, so that there's a separate
 subdirectory for each project (tech report, bug analysis, visualization,
 etc.).  There shall be no shared directories between projects, but instead
 every project shall be self-contained.  One shouldn't have to worry about
 other projects when changing stuff.
  - Rename the `metrics` repository to something like `metrics-playground`,
 `metrics-analysis`, or `metrics-projects`.  Calling the repository
 `metrics` implies that it's somehow at a higher level than `metrics-db`,
 `metrics-utils`, and `metrics-web`, which it is not.
