I don't know if other committersd follow this indicator. Personally it begins to worry me a bit. It's based on one off my shared
filter ("OFBiz All"), I guess everybody with a Jira profile should get the resut https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ConfigureReport.jspa?projectOrFilterId=filter-12311047&periodName=daily&daysprevious=90&cumulative=true&versionLabels=major&selectedProjectId=12310500&reportKey=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.reports%3Acreatedvsresolved-report&Next=Next Last big effort was done by Jacopo in Dec., since then it keeps increasing...

Interesting report... but there are chances that the way I read it is different from yours: this report tells me that we have introduced too many bugs or bad designs in the system and that a more careful commit strategy with shared reviews and discussions about best ways to fix things (rather than accepting the patches as they are contributed) would decrease, in the medium term, the distance.
We also need to mark as won't fix several tickets that are either incomplete or address too specific use cases (without really improving the system as a whole).

You are certainly right and I agree with your point. But this should not be a way for committers to escape their responsabilities.
I think the truth is in the middle. I think that that some committers are not doing their (volunteers) job for too long. I see that few contributors are doing much than most committers. Some contributions are really good and fix neglected issues being there for long. So this situation put the burden on the shoulders of few committers. Some begin to loose the faith (ie less activity) and if this situation continues the project will loose its momentum. Also this situation does not help preventing what you are stigmatizing... Being a committer means some responsability. http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html#committer-responsibilities It's easy to check http://svnsearch.org/svnsearch/repos/ASF/search?path=%2Fofbiz I don't think the list of committers https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/Apache+OFBiz+PMC+Members+and+Committers is in stone... I want to remind here that it's the PMC responsability to propose active and effective contributors to become committers. Note that I'm only concerned by the project good health, nothing else.

In fact it isn't... but at the moment the fact that there are dormant committers doesn't worry me much: we can't enforce people to work for the community and so this is out of our control. Revoking commit rights could be considered as a cleanup task but as a very low priority: inactive committers are not doing any harm and having them in at least adds some possibility for a comeback. The real problem is finding capable new committers and we all know it is not easy; the proposal I have in mind (I will send it in a separate email) may help in lowering the entry bar by asking (new or old) committers to limit their commits to specific areas of the project.

I agree, new *active* committers is the real issue.
