    Actually you'd have to add 3 x NNN to get a roughly correct number.

    But then there's the question what you want to measure. Now you are
    measuring the amount of patches (that is already printed in the
    announcements). If you want to measure the amount of changes, you should
    better substract this from the older ones instead of adding it to the
    newer ones.

    The next problem is that e.g. in BK times, Greg's trees were only a few
    lines of the announcement, while now every single patch in his trees is
    listed...
