There are lies, damn lies and statistics :-)
Please, do not just invent numbers... there are better approximation 
techniques.

There's the KDE CVS list archives and there's the CIA commit database. Both of 
those do however also include other branches, and the former also some 
follow-up discussion.
Shortly before we hit the 100k bug number, the CIA displayed the 100k commit 
number, which is now at 122k.

Unfortunately I don't have the full archives anymore but somebody who does 
could count the messages rather easily.
As for the lines of code which changed, counting them would require a full 
repository diff, and no I don't have that diskspace :)

The 63000 seems to be the value of commits, but including all branches.

Josef
