A warning about delays

It takes time for any activity to show up in the dashboard: data is extracted by the crawlers, inserted in the OpenSearch database, and indices need to be rebuilt.

Depending on the time of the last fetch from the crawlers, and the indices to rebuild, new data usually takes a few days to be visible in the dashboard and on this website. Please note we always provide the considered period of time for any retrieved data (projects, working groups, overall stats), as shown in the example below:
