I would really be interested in knowing how this analysis was done (though
the
png says 'active developers' rather than commits). If the no. of commits
were
taken into consideration, were cases like Sun/Oracle developers committing
code
contributed by others taken care of? (I don't know how significant this
might be, but still would be
interesting to know!)

Anyways, newer analysis would surely be preferred. And some kind of 'future'
projections too ;)

Thanks!
