Are you aware about any analysis like that?




I thought about





- listing top contributors

- time distribution graph (when tag was added)


- distribution of editors used to enter data


- maybe publishing also raw data used in analysis




It should be fairly simple to write tool that

will give this info based on a simple 


analysis (it would give statistics about 


changes that caused tag to occur, without

special handling of reverts).




 But I would prefer to avoid spending time on creating 


tool that already exists.
