+This is a short summary of code metrics showing how lynx has grown from
+release to release. It also shows how the original codebase has
+been almost completely replaced by contributors after the release of
+lynx 2.4.2 in 1996. The numbers shown are for lines of text, to keep
+the presentation simple.

+
+Beginning with 2.8.6, the percentage of the remaining original codebase is
+shown on two lines (i.e., comparing against 2.4.2 indented to use the current
+coding style, or using only the original source). Comparisons using the
+original source give lower estimates of untouched code, though either must be
+viewed taking into account insignificant similarities (such as blank lines).
+
+Starting in 2.8.6dev.3, all C source code has been routinely indented using
+the lnx-indent script from
+ https://invisible-island.net/cindent/
+
+Current lynx releases contain a large amount of text other than C code.
+That includes plain text, html, message libraries, custom and generated
+scripts.

+Older attributions are problematic for several reasons:
+ + some contributors were not credited,
+ + some changes were not recorded,
+ + the level of importance of changes in the older logs differs noticeably
+ from the newer logs.
+There is neither a source repository nor a mailing-list archive to consult to
+resolve these issues.
+
+However, some information can be gleaned from the existing change-logs
+to show the principal contributors for each release (i.e., not listing those
+with less than 1%):
