I don't think we need metrics.  I imagine bugs fixed per month is as
uninteresting as lines of code to the average PHB (pointy-haired
boss), if it's not their own product.  They just want us to say "this
one's good".  I'd be happy to give a guideline that says "all 2.x.0
releases are solid but may contain untested code and surprises; all
2.x.1 and beyond are stabilized."
