A large number of people read about it on my site and others, so I mean to say many people have read about it (and not necessarily downloaded it). On my site I was surprised to find that my 3.0 article was about 3x more popular than my 2.4 articles. Still, I can see only a small number (in the ballpark of 1%) downloaded it, so the conversation rate is low. In other words, more people know about the developer's snapshot (which many people thought was a beta) than your download numbers show. > > 2.

I tried packaging it and failed. My conversation with Stephan Bergmann makes me think it is not possible, but then I emailed Thorsten Behrens who assured me it is possible.
