That's part of it.  I've added -patches to the graph at
http://0ape.com/postgres_mailinglist_size/ as well as
a graph of hackers+patches combined; and it still looks
like hackers+patches is quite high in the past 3 months.

With hackers+patches it looks like 2002-08 was the biggest
month; but the past 3 months still look roughly twice
late 2007's numbers.
