Mike is in contact with the author and
the information regarding JDT Core has already been added.Even with that
the numbers are indeed lower than usual. There are several reasons for
that:

- Summer is usually used to relax and
explore new things, also outside JDT
- Mentoring a GSoC project which did
not yet get committed (pending Gerrit changes)
- Java 9 work which not always results
in commits yet
- Focus on Mars.1 (bug fixing, testing)
- Work in other components (mostly helping
out in the Platform)
- The number of active JDT committers
went down compared to last year

No excuse here. We stopped updating
those in favor of the project management portal (https://projects.eclipse.org/).
We should reflect that on our web pages. https://bugs.eclipse.org/478356
tracks that.

Thanks for the pointer.

It would be easy to tell the author that s/he was using
incomplete information (assuming "JDT" is a working
project vs. just an umbrella - completely missing out
on JDT/Core - not considering bugs fixed - not knowing
what our channels of communication are etc...).

Unfortunately, I don't see how we could add a comment
or contact that person...

Anyone have a contact?
Stephan
