Trying not to go off-topic too much, but... I was thinking about the next "developer education book" campaign, and am starting to believe that trunk statistics are heavily skewed towards devs that don't use branches (i.e. me). So please read the numbers with a grain of salt.
Should we consider coming up with some alternative ranking mechanisms? If we had a mix of algorithms (# bug fixes, # emails on list, # branches proposed for merges, ...), we could make the algorithm choice done randomly at the end of the year, to dissuade gaming the system.

One thing that has become apparent over the last few years attending LGM and the GSoC mentors meeting is that Inkscape has a much smaller and less active community that other similar Open Source projects. (While not exactly comparing oranges to oranges, Drupal has 30,000 code contributors.)
Here is the number of committers with the number of commits for the last year based on "bzr log -v". Note some people appear on more than one line. This is fewer than Martin's analysis shows.
