About 10 months ago, we enabled an auto-decrufter in dak.  Then after 3 months it had become the top 11th "remover".  Today, there are only 3 humans left that have removed more packages than the auto-decrufter... impressively enough, one of them is not even an active FTP-master (anymore).  The current score board:

5371 Luca Falavigna
5121 Alexander Reichle-Schmehl
4401 Ansgar Burchardt
3928 DAK's auto-decrufter
3257 Scott Kitterman
2225 Joerg Jaspert
1983 James Troup
1793 Torsten Werner
1025 Jeroen van Wolffelaar
 763 Ryan Murray

For comparison, here is the number removals by year for the past 6 years:

5103 2011
2765 2012
3342 2013
3394 2014
3766 2015  (1842 removed by auto-decrufter)
2845 2016  (2086 removed by auto-decrufter)

Which tells us that in 2015, the FTP masters and the decrufter performed on average over 10 removals a day.  And by the looks of it, 2016 will surpass that.  Of course, the auto-decrufter has a tendency to increase the number of removed items since it is an advocate of "remove early, remove often!". :)

Data is from https://ftp-master.debian.org/removals-full.txt.  Scoreboard computed as:

grep ftpmaster: removals-full.txt | \
 perl -pe 's/.*ftpmaster:\s+//; s/\]$//;' | \
 sort | uniq -c | sort --numeric --reverse | head -n10

Removals by year computed as:

grep ftpmaster: removals-full.txt | \
  perl -pe 's/.* (\d{4}) \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}.*/$1/' | uniq -c | tail -n6

(yes, both could be done with fewer commands)
