FWIW:

#absolute number of postings (03/2001 - 03/2002)
/average number of postings per month for this 13-month period

user = user mailing list
dev = developer mailing list

Yep, Cocoon is definitely a developer technology. Users go elsewhere. Any
other interpretations of these numbers?

Now let's take a look at the historical development of Cocoon's numbers. I
have two 13-month periods here, the topmost is the one from above and
below is the previous 13-month period:

Period     #user   #dev   /user   /dev   ratio
2001/2002  14504   18083  1116    1387   0.8
2000/2001  15664   10505  1205     808   1.5

While development has substantially increased, usage has remained
constant. Conclusion?
