Thanks! May I suggest some changes:

  1. Make it take the COMMITTERS file as an -C option argument, like
     http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/tools/dev/contribulyze.py
     does.

  2. Use the "if __name__ == '__main__':" convention, as the above
     script does, so the new script can be used as a module later.

  3. You may wish to see process_committers() in the other script as
     an example of how to do things in an object-creating way (instead
     of creating two separate dicts). I'm not sure it's time to
     create a library for processing COMMITTERS-style files, but at
     least the two scripts can share code and refer to each other, for
     the time being.

  2. When you resubmit, just attach the whole script, either inline or
     as a text/plain attachment, instead of using a diff. Diffs are
     good for showing differences, but when it's a whole new file,
     it's better just to show the file.

Best,
-Karl
