There are two that I see:
* Make CirrusSearch / Pywikibot a featured project for new developers
* Do we want to investigate measuring retention of new developers effectively.. include those whose code contribution do not land in Gerrit?

@SSethi (WMF): Can you please share your reasons which make you think of CirrusSearch as a featured project? As I don't see any obvious reasons.
I am reluctant when it comes to Pywikibot as a featured project. Just because some folks contributed their first patch to project X does not automatically imply that code review works particularly well in project X.
"include those whose code contribution do not land in Gerrit?": If you refer to GitHub, I've created phab:T186736 which is blocked on phab:T109939. If you refer to something else, please elaborate.
@AKlapper (WMF) I meant considering CirrusSearch and Pywikibot for our featured projects list as anyway; we want to expand it. Seeing them highlighted in the metrics section, I wonder if there is an interest among new developers to contribute to these projects, then should we consider checking with maintainers if they would be willing to mentor?
Well, I see many many projects there with one or two contributions. So my question was why you'd pick that one.
