Evan and Jonathan are the most active committers but still I can see quite a

patch by Jaakko Laine and jbellis
patch by Scott White; reviewed by Brandon Williams
patch by Jaakko Laine; reviewed by jbellis
patch by Gary Dusbabek; reviewed by eevans

commit log looks like if you only look at who committed the patch?
