Yeah, I was wondering about that too. However, keep in mind that for
example Henrik's contributions were almost entirely in 3.3 which never
saw the day of light so we don't have to worry about those changes too
much (about 1850 methods out of his 2050 overall contributions) since
the current versions of Squeak are not based on that code. See the
original stats I sent (this is exactly the kind of information these
stats are useful for ;-)
This still leaves his other contributions but it's now down to ~200
contributions many of which will likely be small fixes etc. This
probably needs to be reviewed at some level of detail but I don't think
it's an unsurmountable issue.
Cheers,
- Andreas
