As for your analogy, if you want to know the number of people who

by train to go bird watching, it is foolish to watch the trains and
try
to identify the 0.0001 percentage of the travelers who are going to
watch birds - it is far easier to go to the bird sanctuary and find
out
the number of people there who commute by train.
Well said. Although, I don't think there is one place where we can
find
open source contributors. May be, what we need first is to compile a
list of reliable sources where one can find such contributors.
this is the best place (and chennaipy and chennai ruby group). I will
start the ball rolling:
Jaganad H has made good contributions to NLP
Kumar Appaiah - debian
Yuvi Panda - OSM and python stuff
Shakthi Kannan - a one man army of myriad contributions
Girish - spam cheetah
Raman - he is in cpan
Srinivasan's brother (I forget his name)
there are many more - will add them as and when I remember.
