Yup, and that's also the reason why the top 4 (or 5?) people have such
outrageously high commit counts.  They are/were Oracle/Sun release
engineers, and what they do is merge feature branches into the mainline
in their own names, instead of the respective owners of those branches.
So, even among Oracle/Sun engineers, the credits are unfairly skewed
towards the release engineers.

I don't think there is anything we can do about this, but it's worth a
mention.
