[jira] [Commented] (COMDEV-312) Committer count disagrees with Whimsy

["Daniel Gruno (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-312?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16789501#comment-16789501 ] 

Daniel Gruno commented on COMDEV-312:
-------------------------------------

You are correct in that this counts people not in LDAP, and I believe that's the big cause. We went through account processing all the way back to 1994 to get these figures.

 

I'd say it's a matter of which history we wish to show, and how historically accurate we want to be.

> The total committer count on the timeline page
> [https://projects.apache.org/timelines.html] (currently 7145)
> disagrees with the Whimsy count shown here:
> [https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/] (currently 6806)
> This is a difference of over 330.
> Some of this may be due to early committers who were not migrated to LDAP, presumably because they had stopped contributing.
> It's confusing to have such a discrepancy.
> It would be better to use the Whimsy data file:
> [https://whimsy.apache.org/public/public_ldap_people.json]
