Nice work!

However I still think it's a bit difficult/unfair to compare raw email
numbers like this... For example, the cloudstack-dev mailing-list is
used for patches and receives automated emails from "review requests"
and comments on reviews.apache.org, whereas the openstack ML (and I
suspect the other projects as well) only use lists for discussions, and
use other tools for patches and reviews.

So in the end it's interesting to look at trends within a given project
and on a given setup, but not so much to compare between projects with
very different setups.
