Objective Goal:

Through data and metrics, we have gained and widely shared important insights into the state of D&I in Mozilla and more broadly in open source source. Using this information, we can hypothesize solutions for driving greater inclusion & retention of diverse groups; and offer standards for data & metrics.

• With influence from Open Data https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/REC-dwbp-20170131/#DescriptiveMetadata
