Mark, I have some acs 4.2 checkouts and I think 400k or so is
about right for the original code base. Also, the 1.5mm lines of code are a bit deceptive in that there are some things
like .eps files and .html files in docs which are big but
autogenerated from something else.
There is a lot of bias in the simple line counts (eg. don and ben get a lot from initial imports, Joel from docs and the .eps files, danw and some others from the autogenerated .xql files, me from doing merges, etc).
Here is a sum of lines changed this calendar year with some
attempt made to correct for the biases:

Of course, line counts do not really equate with the value
of peoples contributions since some of the people who have low line counts fixed hard bugs and things which have
a value much higher than the few lines they had to change would imply. The thing that is tremendous about this is
the number of people who have actively contributed over the
last year; I think you would find that compared to a lot
of open source projects we have a much broader base of people with commit. I think a lot of the strength of OpenACS derives from our willingness to open to new contributors.
