Present and Future of GrimoireLab

GrimoireLab is a set of tools to retrieve, organize, analyze, and visualize data coming from software development repositories. Many things have changed since the last time GrimoireLab was at CHAOSScon: new functionalities, a pair of successful Google Summer of Code projects, OpenSearch support.

This presentation introduces the new features and components of the platform and the brand new roadmap for the near future.
