Hi,
here are some numbers and facts about Org-mode that
continue to amaze me.
Contributors
------------
- 35 signed-up contributors (i.e. with FSF papers), and more
if you count the contrib directory and the Emacs maintainers
who make small changes every now and then.
Mailing list
------------
- Close to 800 subscribers to the mailing list.
- More than 20000 messages in the mailing list archive on
gmane.org, and quite a few more in my private mail archive,
because it contains also messages sent to me and replied to by
me privately.
- As far as I can tell, we have not even had an attempt to start
a flame in the mailing list (maybe thanks to the moderators,
but I don't think so)
- Absolutely no spam (definitely this is because of our excellent
moderators!)
Websites
--------
- The main FSF page about Emacs (http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/)
mentions 4 extensions as examples. Org-mode is one of them,
together with Gnus, the Debugger, and the Calendar.
- More than 200000 visits to the website orgmode.org in a single
year.
The only countries from which there have been no visits at all
during
that year are Greenland, Albania, Turkmenistan, Yemen, Guyana,
and about 12 countries in Africa.
- Lifehacker.com put Org-mode into its Outline Tools top-five
selection list.
- Typically 10 Twitter messages a day mention Org-mode.
Google Tech Talk
----------------
- almost 50000 Views of the Google Tech Talk.
This is almost as many as as the Google Tech Talks by the
One Famous GTD Guru Merlin Mann:
- "Inbox Zero" with about 60000 Views
- "Time and Attention" with about 70000 Views
There are only some 35 Google Tech Talks with more views,
this is crazy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
All of this make me very proud. Thanks to all of you for making
it happen.
- Carsten
