Looks like a couple of people asked, here you go: I included everyone with 20 patches and then, on Tom's suggestion, anyone with 10 commits - both for a period of 18 months. (The list doesn't change if we go with a filter of 15 patches for the same period.) Is thought it was a reasonably small bar, no? Should we go higher? Regarding why this wasn't discussed before, not sure - but we are discussing now after Tom asked to make up. And boy, are we *discussing*! :) Arun
