But you'd find that some *do* think percentage of employees (or engineers) contributing is a big deal. Google already commented that they measure it and they're #1. :-)

Yes - those interested in vanity metrics, so that they can boast :). What is higher - 40% of 1000 or 3% of 131,000 or 100% of a hypothetical 5 member startup? Contribution per employee also differs within/ across companies, how would you account for that?

:). Thank you for volunteering me in. My contribution would be most likely be around quantifying how open source helps/ enables end user, than who is contributing/ how much.

You know what? There is a whole project
