How long did it take for WDTK to hit target level? #105

Not sure if we can get this out of projectDB?

Worth knowing as a benchmark.

Launched mid December 2007; hit target (and never dropped below thereafter) 26th August 2008. This SQL isn't very nice or fast, but I didn't want to spend time getting my head around an appropriate window function:

foi=# select date,
    (select count(*) from info_requests
        where created_at>=date-'6 months'::interval and created_at<date) as c
from
(select generate_series('2007-10-01'::timestamp, '2016-10-01'::timestamp, '1 day') as date) dates;

Probably hit a little quicker than that, given we count other transactions (like user signups, follows, comments, etc) towards the targets. In any case, we're looking at something like 6-9 months.

What is target-hitting?

A deployment that receives either at least 125,000 sessions in any rolling six month period in the target year or facilitates at least 2,500 transactions in any rolling six month period in the target time period.
