Contributor count for a point in time - total, active

This is fuzzy:

  • what's a contributor? I'd say anybody who interacts with the repository in any way for now - comments on an issue, makes a commit, opens an issue.
  • what's an active contributor? How about has a contribution (see above) that's no further than one month away from the reference "point in time"

what's a contributor? I'd say anybody who interacts with the repository in any way for now - comments on an issue, makes a commit, opens an issue.

Github's Contributors Graph are people who commit to the repository. Changing the meaning of a word in a well established context just confuses people. I'll elaborate on this in the next days.
