Cross-project life cycle metrics reporting in TeamForge 8.0

As the new reporting framework is expected to evolve over the next few releases, unlike TeamForge 7.2 or earlier versions, TeamForge 8.0 and later have the life cycle metric reports feature (that lets you create and add cross-project life cycle metric charts to project pages) deprecated and turned off by default. While the new reporting framework makes reporting effortless, expect it to cater only to intra-project reporting needs at the moment. If you still want cross-project life cycle metrics reporting in TeamForge 8.0, you must set this REPORTS_ENABLE_LIFECYCLE_METRICS token to true. See REPORTS_ENABLE_LIFECYCLE_METRICS for more information.
