Measuring and estimating the reusability and ease of reuse of software components are important steps towards finding reusable candidates. As a result, plenty of researches have attempted to evaluate the extent to which a software artifact is reusable. Prior works follow code-based approaches. However with the popularity of software repositories, researchers have started to investigate how metadata related to the process and product of the software can be utilized to enrich their techniques. So this metadata allows the introduction of metadata-driven alternatives. Therefore, likelihood, impact and risk of change are calculated from the metadata of open source software systems. Thus, this dataset can be used as the information in the development of meta data-driven stability, change propagation and reusability assessing methodologies.
