78 people contributed in the form of code commits, but more people likely contributed to the release in other ways (QA, triage, release management etc.)
Fuck me. Can you not read? It is stating specifically features and bug fixes. QA, triage, release management are neither features nor bug fixes. They’re processes. They’re necessary. But that’s a separate thing.
