I can see that. Someone needs to step in as release manager.

On the other hand, Ohloh says that OpenOCD is
one of the largest open-source teams in the world. :-)

http://www.ohloh.net/p/openocd/factoids/19359591
"Over the past twelve months, 98 developers
contributed new code to OpenOCD.

This is one of the largest open-source teams in the
world, and is in the top 2% of all project teams on Ohloh.

For this measurement, Ohloh considered only recent
changes to the code. Over the entire history of the
project, 196 developers have contributed."
