Well, 4 committers with 2 from the same organization: you still have 3
organizations involved.   I think 3 is not that big a number:
committers do not have to be full time employee, and level of activity
may vary greatly between committers if some are full time employee and
others work on their spare time.  But having 3 or more independant
committers is also a result of the openness of the project.
I know that when you have a bunch of full time employee devoted to a
project, it's much more difficult to attract new committers, but
still...
