Sure - but we need to fix that; for a start it is only polite, you guys
do great work, and we should recognise that.

Ah - but they do lots of work in bugzilla, which tracks and
date/time/user-stamps every change :-)

And of course, all metrics are subject to being gamed, distorted by
chatty bugzilla commenters, or rabid commit-each-line-of-change types
but overall (hopefully) they show something useful.
If we can come up with some nice easy-to-reproduce metric, having them
in the on-line credits for 3.5 and shipping them in 3.5.1 seems like an
excellent idea.
