So Claus started this with his blog on Apache Camel - 2009 in numbers - so I'd thought it would be interesting to do the same with ActiveMQ (does not include ActiveMQ C#, C++ or Stomp sub-projects). The numbers are not as good as Camel - but still good:
Number of posts to the ActiveMQ user forum in 2009: 4440
Number of posts to the ActiveMQ dev forum in 2009: 4447
Number of commits in 2009: 2893
Number of downloads 2009: - hard to know (because of Apache mirrors) - but about 60k a month
Number of tickets created in 2009 - 505 (295 of these are resolved)
Number of resolved issues in 2009 - 467
We didn't quiet manage to resolve more issues than were raised - but this is because as a community, until very recently we have been very lax at accepting issues - so a lot of issues raised don't even have the version, let alone the environment or a test case! If a test case is attached - we can usually resolve an issue very quickly - its reproducing the issue that always takes the time.
