I'm not against somebody putting that together, but I don't think it would be useful for me. I think it would inflate the numbers for committers by quite a lot more than what is fair, because if I commit a 1000 line patch and I add 50 lines of code, I'm going to get an awful lot more credit than I deserve. It would probably also inflate or distort the numbers for some other people as well. But what I would say is -- if you think it's a useful thing, try doing it. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
