I do see two options:  Try to fetch data from GitHub as well (no idea
how hard this would be to implement) or droping this group from our
statistics.  IMHO it makes no sense to trigger the false impression that
the team became inactive / dead.

I think there is not much harm done when choosing the second option
because if the teams would really use our graphs they would have told us
about the wrong impression that is currently created. 

On the other hand beeing able to handle GitHub data as well might offer
new options.

Kind regards

     Andreas.
