The difference in Linux Foundation's rank between the 2.6.20 changes and changes over the past year caught my interest. Out of curiosity, is there a simple explanation for that discrepancy? TIA.

I suspect this is due to the fact that the Linux Foundation is just one month old. It was created on Jan 21, 2007 from the merger of OSDL and the Free Standards Group.

That makes sense, but the number of lines contributed from Linux Foundation employees is different between the 2.6.20 table and the year-long table, and OSDL doesn't appear at all, so I assumed the "Linux Foundation" entry included OSDL's old numbers as well.
