I had a look through a few projects, and it would seem to me like "know" 90% of the committers because they are all associated with maven, most of them are also active. There's a further 5 or so committers that are well known community folks that we could probably get hold of easily. It would appear to me this group is 95% or so of the commits. There's a handful of names I am unsure if we'll be able to locate, the contributions I've seen from these names are small.
I think it all amounts to something like this: For quite a few of the plexus repos we have close to 100% of the committers as currently active maven community members. For yet another bunch of projects we have one or two significant non-maven contributors that we may be able to get hold of. For plexus-utils the list is a bit longer, but there's a lot of smaller contributions that'd normally go below the CLA radar. I suppose we'd need to get some kind of exact metric to measure by if we were to make an even more structured attempt at evaluating compliance..?
