Hi Ben,

I think the situation for the NodeJS SIG is a bit different, since it
already has a group for organizing dist-git access, we didn't have
that for the Java stack, so we needed a new FAS group. I think it
should be possible to adapt our tooling for the purposes of the
nodejs-sig.

The scripts and tooling we use to make maintenance easier for us are
in this git repo:
https://github.com/fedora-stewardship/fedora-stewardship.github.io

It should be pretty straightforward to adapt some scripts (especially
./sig_report.py and ./check_sig_leaf.py) - I think changing the string
"stewardship-sig" for "nodejs-sig" should be enough in most cases :)

The page with reports and statistics that's generated with those
scripts is online here:
https://fedora-stewardship.github.io/

Maybe it can serve as inspiration for the nodejs-sig.

Fabio
