That may be narrowly true as written, but it is misleading. Here are some observations concerning the 1000 most recent commits to the "data" tree: ... 100.0 percentile 503 mfranz ... 49.7 percentile 167 vmmeazza ... 33.0 percentile 131 sydadams ... 19.9 percentile 102 martin ... 9.7 percentile 45 curt ... 5.2 percentile 14 durk ... 3.8 percentile 11 frohlich ... 2.7 percentile 9 helijah ... 1.8 percentile 8 ehofman ... 1.0 percentile 6 andy ... 0.4 percentile 2 fredb ... 0.2 percentile 2 dfaber We see that one person is responsible for over half the commits, and 4 persons are responsible for more than 90% of the commits. ======================= The corresponding observations for the "source" tree are: ... 100.0 percentile 545 mfranz ... 45.5 percentile 119 frohlich ... 33.6 percentile 92 fredb ... 24.4 percentile 90 curt ... 15.4 percentile 56 ehofman ... 9.8 percentile 40 durk ... 5.8 percentile 40 andy ... 1.8 percentile 14 daveluff ... 0.4 percentile 4 david We see that, again, one person is responsible for more than half the commits. Five persons are responsible for more than 90% of the commits. The whole list is only 9 persons long. ========================= The way I look at it, in effect it's not 20 other people who could evaluate a given submission, in effect it's three or four other people. And some of them are too busy with their own work to bother with contributions from the hoi polloi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
