Inspired by Max Spevack’s blog post, here are some statistics for the Pardus repositories.

Pardus 2007 statistics, gathered on 2007-12-13.
(generated by packagerStats script)

Total source pisi packages in Pardus 2007 repositories (both stable and contrib) is 2433.

1337 (55%) are maintained by non-TUBITAK developers.
1096 (45%) are maintained by TUBITAK developers.

The total number of non-TUBITAK maintainers is 45.
The total number of TUBITAK maintainers is 10.

1337 / 45 = 29.7 packages per non-TUBITAK maintainer.
1096 / 10 = 109.6 packages per TUBITAK maintainer.

Here are the top three non-TUBITAK maintainers by package count:

Eren Türkay - 259
Ali Erdinç Köroğlu - 165
Murat Şenel - 155

Here are the top three TUBITAK maintainers by package count:

İsmail Dönmez - 329
S.Çağlar Onur - 327
Onur Küçük - 235

If we distribute all the packages equally among the current developers, we would get:

2433 / 55 = 44.2 packages per maintainer.

Pardus is growing fast. Although the numbers are mind-numbing, currently Pardus developers manage to keep all the packages up to date. And thanks to our security ninja for keeping us safe.

New developers are always welcome. :) Come join us and help us make Pardus one of the best Linux distributions.
