The information is certainly interesting, so I'm kinda surprised these kind of reports aren't already available on the NixOS monitoring website at https://monitoring.nixos.org/. Might be interesting to play around with hydra job statuses and frequencies in Apache Superset if I had the time...

The interface isn't super pretty, but as long as you're comitted to either keeping the list of jobsets up-to-date or putting in a webhook+action to do that, I think it's fine to add this as a resource. I might also recommend adding a link on the homepage to https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_channels for those uninitiated on the jobset/nix-channel relationship and concepts.

I'm surprised too!

I tried to find this kind of information, but didn't have any luck on that site or others. Given that folks post reports they generate themselves using nix-review-tools during the zero Hydra failures push before a new release (e.g., see ZERO Hydra Failures 21.11) seems unlikely that existing tools automate generating this info.

I agree the interface isn't super pretty (the site is just using the default Jekyll theme), but it does the job. I may get around to tweaking it at some point, but I don't have much experience with Jekyll, so it's a bit of a slog for me to change stuff like that. (Contributions always welcome 😛.)

I do plan on keeping the jobsets up to date, and making improvements as needed.

I might also recommend adding a link on the homepage to https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_channels for those uninitiated on the jobset/nix-channel relationship and concepts.

Would be nice to have something like this, but having a look at that page it doesn't seem great for that. Each Hydra jobset does have a comment that usually indicates which branch/channel it's for, so maybe some text with a short explanation and a link to the nixos and nixpkgs Hydra projects would be a good idea. I'll think on it.

FYI, I added some explanation of the jobset-channel correspondence and a bunch of other documentation to the site: https://malob.github.io/nix-review-tools-reports/about/
