People are highly suspicious of statistics with a clear meaning. I think it has something to do with penis length measurements (on which count I have no cause for fear, let me assure you -- indeed I break most measuring tapes whenever a squirrel runs by outside my window).

No details, please.. :-)

Is there a simple way to get a count of bugs fixed on the release22-maint branch over a given time span? I don't think so, but there could be if people added an entry to the appropriate NEWS file(s) per bug fixed. Or maybe that's just dreamming up a way to discourage bug fixes .

Maybe you're just looking at the wrong side. You have a complete bug tracking system, with information about every open and closed bugs. Is it time to ask SF to provide some automated access?
