Given all the caveats and the lopsided view the graphs display, what
are we trying to achieve by graphing the metric of commits per company?

It's also not clear to me what the inputs to these graphs are, for instance
whether changes to Linux, u-boot, qemu or other major projects that we
consume and contribute to are included or whether it's just repositories
under the openbmc org on github. If we're excluding upstream projects,
why?

Where are the scripts to reproduce the graphs? Can you contribute them
to openbmc-tools?
