What's more amazing is that apart from Suse (which has already slipped in last position in the by-line report) no entity in the Linux distribution business shows up anymore except for Red Hat.

Makes you wonder how well would other Linux distros fare should anything change Red Hat-side. I doubt the Googles and IBMs would fight hard to sustain end-user-facing distributions.

Not sure about IBM, but Google most definitely will fight hard to sustain couple of "end-user-facing distributions". Of course these are called Android and ChromeOS and thus may not be what you had in mind, but they are Linux distributions (albeit at this point not a self-hosting ones).

And their use of Ubuntu as workstation (I don't see developers using ChromeOS for real work)

I'd guess people affiliated with Debian are responsible for quite a few of the unknown / consultant / none commits.
