Hi Christian,

I wonder why you (without a need) exclude the more interesting
new/unconfirmed/started/reopened patch issues - some of them with
nice 4-digit issue numbers:

While it is true that there are outstanding patches, it is also true that - as Joost pointed out - some of them are assigned to developers that now work on LO. I don't want to pass the buck - it just should explain that sometimes there may be valid reasons for not integrating a patch immediately.

Anyway, even if you included these outstanding patches, I hope that you don't join Jonathan in his ridiculous allegation that Sun had rejected "the majority of contributions from others". This just isn't true, and even if we wanted to prove that, we couldn't, as he didn't back that up with data.

OTOH, the data presented by you and Christian at least proves the opposite. I know that you will understand what I want to express, but for others that don't: I don't say that Sun did not reject contributions (we did, for various reasons, most of the time a missing SCA or that the patch just was not sufficient), but I deny that Sun rejected "the majority of contributions". Read the presented data, do the math.

Regards,
Mathias
