I'm sorry, I understood that text was about the project, not about the
microtask. The microtask is about either:

* Producing an ES index with messages labeled by thread (by applying a
threading algorithm to messages retrieved from archives), or

* Producing an ES index with commits labeled by branch (by following
refes, and parents information in the output produced by Perceval).

In the complete project, both will be used to produce the final indexes
that power the code review dashboard.

More clear now?

If you want, let's schedule some IRC slot for clarifying whatever is
not clear.
