Any better?

Very neat stuff, I can hear the managers subscribed to the list panting for more :)

But it is interesting how it's an exponential progression.

I think it's a bit dangerous, because it is so misleading. Both the "top performers" are clearly integrators rather than big coders, and I suspect a lot of my "cset-points" are actually from the early BK tree creation where every single cset got attributed to me simply because they got merged from the historic non-SCM patch info.

Certainly looking at the SCM statistics from the last 500 ChangeSets, 63 of them were attributed to me ("Hey, Linus does 12% of all kernel coding himself! Studly, man!"), but if you actually look at the details of the changesets, you'll notice that I'm a total loser, and I end up doing little coding and most of my changesets are merges, cset excludes, kernel version updates etc ("Hey, Linus is a complete moron!")..

So I personally get a bit nervous about pretty graphs - they _seem_ to say so much, yet they clearly don't tell enough. Which can be a bit dangerous if somebody takes them too seriously. They're just simple enough that you think you get the RealTruth(tm).

Shut up Linus! They're obviously revealing a Deeper Truth.

12th best kernel coder on the planet! Woohoo!
