A patch posted from a company email address is assumed to be posted with that company's blessing. Anybody who doesn't have that blessing is probably violating all kinds of rules. In short: when somebody posts a patch, in the absence of information to the contrary, we attribute it to their employer. The results are necessarily approximate, but I'm not sure how to do them better.

As a side note, I have seen some research on commit patterns across projects and it was really entertaining to see some projects following strict Mo-Fri 9-5 patterns while others (also including commercial developers) committed all over the place including weekends, nights etc.
I would love to see that research across a wide range
Some numbers and thoughts on the stable kernels Posted Aug 31, 2010 21:16 UTC (Tue) by hingo (guest, #14792) [Link] I've been playing with the idea of producing similar stats for MySQL/MariaDB development, to benchmark it against Linux and other similar projects. This is an excellent idea to add to the analysis! Thanks.
