The thing is, if you have git, you can basically already do this. Do a script like this: #!/bin/sh git log --since=6.months.ago -- "$@" | grep -i '^ [-a-z]*by:.*@' | sort | uniq -c | sort -r -n | head and it gives you a rather good picture of who is involved with a particular subdirectory or file. A much *better* picture than some manually maintained thing, in fact, because it tells you who really does the work, and which way patches go... (Maybe you want to add a grep -v '\(Linus Torvalds\)\|\(Andrew Morton\)' to avoid seeing the normal chain too much, but hey, we probably want to know too. Anyway - the script can certainly be tweaked, the point is really just that the git tree _already_ contains the relevant information).
