Kalyan: individual contribution metrics are not visible - we need to make them visible (ie. lines of code contributes, code reviewed etc..) This will greatly increase our capacity to encourage and motivate contributors to the project. Openstack do this very well. See this http://stackalytics.com/
Of course, the flip side to providing visibility to contributions is that this could encourage quantity over quality whereby people might be eager to push code just for the sake of being seen on top of the leaderboard of developers, rather than focusing on pushing high quality code.
That said, contribution metrics should not be restricted only to code, but we need to consider metrics for code review comments, Test defects etc, this will help to control the quality as people are motivated to review/test others code
In the case of Kalyan's team, some work with openstack, since both metrics for code contribution and code review is considered theirs, people are more careful about quality as they would not like get -1 from others
