I disagree. Your example lists what? 2 more developers? I'm talking about "developers" as in people working the C code, build scripts, tcl/tk etc aka people who could, theoretically, help push out a new Pd-extended release. True, we have plenty of people working on externals, but this is a problem for someone who can go deeper.

I still maintain that the number of low level developers to overall users (non-developers) is relatively low.

That's true in nearly any piece of user-facing software.  But compared to other user-facing software, Pd seems to have a fairly large number of users with a working knowledge of C, building/compiling, etc.  Enough that I can think of at least 13 for whom there is proof just by what I've read from them on the user list.  But there are probably many more than that.

However, your description of the user/developer ratio doesn't ring true to me.  There's actually a surplus of developers and development energy-- I count two implementations of presets in the last year or two (in Pd-l2ork and the Chocolate et Coffee lib) which are in addition to however many already exist on svn and the Pd forum.
