The drop in line of code count since 2010 is because we started using package management and could remove a lot of 3rd party code from our repo. Previously, most 3rd party libraries (ICU, ffmpeg, …) and tools (binutils, bash, …) were copied into our sources and their buildsystem rewritten to use Jam. Now these are built using haikuporter instead (and you can see the stats for that, too: http://pulkomandy.tk/stats_hp/ - with a big increase on activity this year)
