I think I can probably answer most of the questions, as we did track those data, but not sure: much of what was there is a) gone, b) old, really old. That said, regarding the committers: See, http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/DomainDeveloper "Domain Developer," as you know, meant that one had access as a committer globally. As to general ports, from memory: 1. Windows. > 95% And then Mac OS X And then, in the single digits, the rest. (Linux distros., of course, included OOo and its variants.) The old spreadsheets from the first few years are probably not quite accurate--they never were--but suggestive of the breakdown then of "everything else". However, now, things are quite a lot different, and past data ought not to prescribe present, let alone future behaviour.
