Yes, but absolute numbers are no measure for that. You'll have to
compare the number of commits over some period of time to make a
relevant comparison. For example, you could compare it to the number of
change sets that have been posted on Mantis for a given period of time.

80% of the *commits*, not 80% of the *changes*. Number of commits is no
adequate measure for the impact of changes. You're leaving out (for
example) Juan's work (text editors, fonts), Eliot's work (closures,
debugger), and Igor's work (method trailers etc).
