p.s. I would have liked to include some proper GitHub statistics e.g: “unique contributors to Discourse (+ related projects) from Jan 1 2015 to Dec 31 2015” and so forth, but I can’t work out how to get this from the GitHub API.
If someone would like to lend a hand with this, let me know and I’ll be sure make good use of it, starting with our upcoming v1.5 release!

I think we should consider doing this with plain ol’ git rather than github.
The script that parses the logs to create release notes might be a good place to start. There might also be prior art out there.

Had a little play with BigQuery, first time I have so you might want to check for errors:
This is just for the [github.com/discourse/discourse](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/) project.
```plaintext
SELECT
count(*) as count,
type as type,
STRFTIME_UTC_USEC(TIMESTAMP_TO_USEC(created_at), "%Y-%m-%d") as date
FROM (
TABLE_DATE_RANGE([githubarchive:day.events_],
TIMESTAMP('2015-01-01'),
TIMESTAMP('2015-12-31')
))
WHERE repo.name = "discourse/discourse"
AND NOT type contains "Comment"
GROUP BY date, type
ORDER BY date, type
```
~~I can provide a Google Sheet or CSV perhaps if needed.~~
