Hey, wait a moment there! You have committed 32 times this year and 144
times in the last year. Not one of the people who voted for closing
Uoti's account comes even close to that, you have done more than all
of them *combined*! Some numbers:
2007 2008 total
roberto 58 21 79
ivan 24 9 33
alban 17 11 28
aurelien 8 0 8
michael 2 0 2
-------------------------------------
combined 109 31 140
Here are the rest of the people that committed in 2008 excluding
translators that do not work on the code (voroshil does both) and
FFmpeg-only developers, up to r26680 (also excluding homepage
commits):
diego 1038 504 1542
reimar 690 246 936
voroshil 312 8 320
nico 212 43 255
benjamin 144 32 176
ulion 153 13 166
eugeni 106 56 162
uoti 99 20 119
guillaume 93 24 117
compn 97 16 113
cehoyos 89 8 97
ivo 65 4 69
zuxy 55 12 67
vayne 14 3 17
corey 9 6 15
attila 10 5 15
loren 11 2 13
rik 1 3 4
So we have 7 people that are more active than any of the voters
combined.

100% agreed.
