David, A bit unfair to call Linux "mobilized" when Samsung's "sponsorship" only amounts to 3.4% versus RedHat's 25.7% and The Linux Foundations 12%.
Also, the image in your blog post should clarify that the "top 10 developers" only measures from kernel version 3.2 to 3.10. Reading deeper into the report, the most pleasing aspect for me is that people doing Linux kernel development for "free" - i.e. not aligned to any company is still the largest "block" of developers. Another interesting thing was that Ubuntu - probably the most well-known desktop Linux - doesn't appear anywhere in the report. P. -- Evolution (n): A hypothetical process whereby infinitely improbable events occur with alarming frequency, order arises from chaos, and no one is given credit.
