Interesting distribution of contributors [1]. Usually what I see on most projects is one or two guys contributing the most of the code since the start of the repository, with minor contributors coming and going. These contributors chart seem to show different guys taking the helm at different points on time though.

- emmanueloga_ 12y agoBTW, since I know how much does the hackernews crowd appreciate baseless speculation (sorry!), I'd add this: I wonder if Ryan Dahl is involved with this project. Working on something like this would be compatible with some of the things he wrote about before disappearing [1]. 1: http://xahlee.info/comp/Ryan_Dahl_on_software_complexity.html http://xahlee.info/comp/Ryan_Dahl_on_software_complexity.htm...
