Why, say, do we see the following results:
* The #haskell IRC channel contains 500 people, the #ocaml channel 70?
* 250 unique developers have uploaded 600 new libraries to
hackage.haskell.org in the past year.
How's the Caml Hump going?
* On Arch Linux, we find 480 Haskell packages and tools, but only 21
for OCaml. Why the difference?
* The caml-list had 315 posts for June, 08, while haskell-cafe had
over 1400
Your statistics focus soley on the Debian-based distribution statitics,
which have had an active OCaml group for several years now. What do the
registered install stats look like, on say, Arch Linux, or Gentoo?
