If we can report on the current members in the development team vs. what their upload rights are (core-dev, MOTU, or the relevant team for packageset upload) we'll already have some initial data to work with. Then, we also do have some amounts of data to try to guess if a particular developer is "active"... It's possible, it just becomes computationally expensive (at least if you check -changes mailing list against developers in the right development teams, etc.), for not a ton more "certainty" on whether someone is active. > Is this something you'd want to modify the DMB scripts to try to tackle, at > least the parts that can be automated?

I suggested it because I'm happy to write a new script / modify the existing to get this data. I'll see to get this working soon, so we have some data to work with before the disco release.
