Hi,

As far as I'm aware I haven't gotten access to edit the wiki page for
publishing it. But the stats Gentoo has recorded are as follows (graph
attached);

Date                                    All
Number of reports                       24
Average embargo time (first public)     10.44
Average embargo time (oss-security)     10.63

This is based on the following monthly data:
2017-06 2017-07 2017-08 2017-09 2017-10
1       3       6       9       5
10.84   34.16   6.39    5.83    9.30
14.16   34.50   6.39    5.84    9.31

The wikified stats based on the generated DocuWiki output is available
in very basic style at the testing instance:

https://wiki.sumptuouscapital.com/doku.php?id=distros_stats

but this deserves a more fitting home (e.g the width isn't a problem on
the wider template) :)
