There are only 9 others who have reported 100 bugs or more,
and only another 19 who have reported 50 or more.
So, if you are wondering why the number of open bugs has
continued
to climb despite a massive increase in the rate of bugfixing,
now you
know. What it really means is that we're getting a lot of bugs
being
reported, which normally wouldn't be found for a couple of
years.
Congratulations, Bugbear!
Grats! Next step: start working on pull request. I have the
feeling once bearophile starts contributing code, there'll be
another change of phase in the bug dynamics!

I tried to convince him on IRC to start contributing code not too
long ago, arguing that he's a better programmer than I am and
even I've gotten a bug fix or two in. He says he's not as
competent as he sounds which is patently absurd. He'll be an even
bigger asset to D than he is already once he decides to start
sending pull requests.
