Thanks for the suggestion, Eric, but, my point was to try to stir again the advocacy efforts which have quickly died since Aug. Not really to figure out the exact number of users, which is not really feasible, IMHO.
Which reminds me something that I didn't mention on this list. The
article I submitted on mod_perl 2.0 will be in the January issue
of Sys Admin Magazine. Hopefully it will bring a few converts.
That's an excellent news, Frank!
As I'm sure many of you have heard about the SpreadFirefox.com
campaign to do advertising via donations. I have been waiting for
long time to see a project do this, as I think it's a great way
to get exposure. Do you think we could pull something like this
off for mod_perl and/or perl itself?
I doubt we could raise the money for a full page NYT add, but we
may be able to raise enough money to get some banner ads, 1/4 page
in Dr. Dobbs, or something along those lines to tie into the final
mp2 release. Comments?
Certainly a good idea. The question is whether someone wants to lead the effort and whether there are enough time resources to do that.
