Yep!  Somebody should update the docs to suggest
 darcs show authors | sort | uniq -c | sort -n -r

But I figure that people have to do something like our canonization
(for that matter, I was about to submit a patch which uses show
authors, but decided that was a bad idea for some reason)

Hey, nice!   Hope somebody steps up :-)
