Ragarding the list on the page, I have one thought (not complete enough= to be called suggestion) and one datapoint: (1) The boundary between the "Primary Authors" vs "Contributors" seems= to be set at 50 commits with the current table. This would mean that= we will have a lot more primary authors as project progresses. Is th= is desirable? We have 14999 non-merge commits as of 1.6.2; perhaps a per-cent (o= r a half per-cent) cutoff rule would give a more balanced and consiste= nt view in the longer term [*1*]? (2) This script: $ git shortlog -s v1.6.1 | sed -e 's/^[ 0-9]*//' >/var/tmp/1 $ git shortlog -s v1.6.2 | sed -e 's/^[ 0-9]*//' >/var/tmp/2 $ comm -13 /var/tmp/[12] produces the list of new contributors. There are 39 names [*2*]. [Footnotes] *1* A more drastic change would be not to have two lists, but just one. *2* Thanks and welcome.
