Building on that: 82% of patches for Mozilla Firefox are
accepted at first sight.
Thanks for referring the paper, I'll read it on the plane.
Facebook's rate would be probably comparable. An important
detail: is that the rate for internal developers or public
contributors? Couldn't get a definitive answer by skimming the
paper. -- Andrei
Found it: the paper I linked focuses more on webkit, the case of
firefox is detailed in a previous paper [1]. They did choose to
focus on core developers defining them as having proposed 100+
patches. This point of the methodology is explained in more
details in section IV of the paper.
