We're also not including stock buybacks, public companies going private via buyout, or-for the most part-the massive consolidation in the telecommunications and media spaces, because we have to draw the line somewhere. If a deal has been announced but hasn't yet closed, you'll see an asterisk next to its entry on the list.
