Oh yeah, all of those Wayland developers:

I'm not equating Canonical with open source, I'm equating what they're making with open source. Because it is. What are you even talking about?

I don't know how github generates that data, but if you page through this:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/log/?qt=author&q...

It paints a very different picture about the distribution of authorship.

Hmm, you are right. That's a bit awkward, git doesn't actually track authors, it just tracks committers. So there's actually a bunch of authors, and krh is just committing for them. Woops, sorry about that :) Would like to see a graph that shows authorship though, very interested in how large and active the wayland dev team actually is.
