<p>
Other projects are publishing their Bugzilla stats, so I took 30 minutes and threw together a script to run some numbers against our Bugzilla instance.
</p>
<p>
Two things to keep in mind when looking at these numbers:
<ol>
	<li>We migrated our bugs from Trac to Bugzilla in mid-August.  Trac wasn't working out for us and we've got a lot of crufty bug data still hanging around since then.</li>
	<li>The numbers are slices of data.  They can indicate things, but there's a lot of context that they don't take into account.  So it's good to be careful about drawing conclusions based solely on the numbers reported.</li>
</ol>

There are a few things I want to point out.
</p>
<p>
First, is that we've got 645 new Bugzilla users since mid-August.  That's really great!
</p>
<p>
Second, is that Janet is not a machine that generates 10 bugs and 30 comments every day.  What's going on is that I tied her Bugzilla userid to all the bugs I migrated from Trac for which I had no userid to tie to.
</p>
<p>
Third, sg and Fluteman are really fantastic.  The work they're doing is making a huge difference in the direction and quality of Miro.  Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who's helped out in 2007.  I hope the numbers for 2008 are doubly-impressive.  :)
