Adding into the mixing pot, I agree with all the above comments and that is hard to measure. In the blunted of terms ptfs Europe has 2.5 FTE devs working on koha, plus 2 FTE in koha support who also sign off on patches so that's development time in you metric right? Outside of hours in sure our te

I'd like to also add our company, We've just started to develop for Koha 9 months ago, however, we support (I think) the biggest public library ogranization in the world in count, 1120 public libraries of Turkey. Our team is 5 FTE for the moment, including developers, documentation, support a

For most of the vendors in the table, development is focused on one strategic product. In some cases they may also have some other projects, so that whole number may not be devoted to the main ILS. The column of interest is the one for “Dev” counting only developers, not the total headcount of

And that misses the point, That's just companies - were a majority is volunteer time. Like Chris is paid to work on Koha 1 FTE, but that's only about 1/2 of the amount of time he works on Koha, easily another 40 hours a week is all completely volunteer. Good difficult questions Marshall (you tota

Now that we have a better idea of the answer you are looking for. Roughly estimating all companies that support Koha (12 of them in India, 6 in Spain alone) I'd say Koha is 1500+ easily. On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 1:22 PM, Chris Cormack wrote: > > > On 13 February 2015 at 10:14, Marshall Breeding

I would be much happier using the numbers that Tomás pointed out (which is a much different story then FTE). Marshall could you maybe ask these proprietary companies to match our numbers, instead of the other way around - then you'd get a much better idea of what's actually happening. For example

I'm not sure how to count it either. This would be my estimate. I spend 50% of my time doing Release Manager duties, the rest is spent working on development and documentation. But if I count the amount of hours I work for Koha, I should count a total of 1.3 FTE, I guess. If I count Bernardo, it'd

Paul, This estimate helps quite a bit. Part of what I'm working toward is being able to have a figure for Koha that corresponds to what the vendors developing proprietary products allocate to product development. They also have lots of staff devoted to things like marketing and administration

Marshall, I don't think we can provide you with that information in that time frame. We could try, but not sure. On the other hand, have you seen the project's profile on OpenHub? [1]. It provides lots of metrics about the projects activity, even developer-wise. You could take a look and see if it
