The next major release of FreeBSD, version 7, is one of the most significant so far, with amount of new technologies and improvement largest since introduction of 5.0. Since constantly searching the mailing lists for important changes can be a bit tedious, this page lists some of the more interesting new things in one place.

Well, reading the comments on the survey, it appears that the data was collected solely on the basis of email address, and that it overlooked some aliases. In short, it's raw data.
A similar survey a few years ago credited most of the work that I've done to other people (using the scientific method of grep'ing the sources looking for email addresses, full names, etc ;-). There's no evidence that this survey is any better. Doing an accurate survey takes a lot of time.
