This is a "budget" conference, so no videos.

I don't quite understand the graph on that slide.  What does the

Yes, on x-axis there are committers and on y-axis number of commits per
committer during 18 month period of time. So compared to other projects,
SymPy had, during that period of time, quite a few active developers besides
core developers (x in [5, 15] is the most interesting, but the whole "tail"
looks very good).
