The popcon version graph on <URL:http://popcon.debian.org/> has flattened out, and the increase for stable (1.41) since version 1.43 was uploaded to unstable is almost the same as the amount of hosts registered using unstable (~5000). This make me suspect that the DOS issue might be the reason we do not see more submissions registered. On the other hand, the submissions in stable did not increase as the exact same date as the upload was done to unstable. This make me more unsure if the increase is related to the unstable upload or not. Perhaps it is time to allow version 1.43 into testing, and see if the amount of stable submissions increases with that amount (~14700)? Anyone working on a different approach to avoid all clients in a given time zone contacting the popcon server at the same time?
