((# of register gentoo users on the forms) - (# of registered users that
have left gentoo) - ( number of users that have registers twice)) *
(1/(percent of users that register))

# of register gentoo users on the forms = 36789
guess
# of registered users that have left gentoo ~ 1000
# number of users that have registers twice ~ 1000
this is the hard one (assume 1000 posts to the list a day 100 e-mail to
this
 list 1/2 the people read both 1/20 use mailing list and not forms how
many read the forms but never post??? assume 60 - 10. Assume 5 % just
RTFM)
percent of users that register 35 to 85

(36789 - 1000 - 1000)*(1/.35) = 99397
to
(36789 - 1000 - 1000)*(1/.85) =  40928
