   Last year, for each of six Linux kernel releases - v6.7, v6.8 ... v6.12 - I was topping the list of most active contributors. This consistency led to a more interesting stat: I am one of the most active Linux kernel contributors for this period (and I don't count Kent here as he just dropped stuff out of tree... and then developed things to his own tree without review or mailing list collaboration) with upstream 1339 commits.
   
   
   
   I am however more proud of another impact I made: I am one of the most active reviewers of the last one year of Linux kernel development. Reviewing takes a lot of time, a lot of iterations, a lot of patience, a lot of template answers and results with only "some" of reviewed-by credit going to Linux kernel git history. Yet here I am: ~1000 reviewed-by credits for last year v6.7 - v6.12 Linux kernel.

     @jarkko What I miss in LWN stats is the employer stats for Tested/Reviewed-by. There are such for committer Signed-offs, which shows only part of employer support for long term maintenance.
     
     @corbet Maybe for the next LWN stats? (Tested/Reviewed aggregated over employer names)

     @krzk @jarkko I could certainly consider adding per-employer test and review stats. If so, they are likely to show up in KSDB (https://lwn.net/ksdb/) first; I need to get back into that code anyway...
