501 users have uploaded 7202 versions of 1870 packages. http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/stats The download stats are computed occasionally, but I've not had time since Hackage moved to the new server. The last edition is here: "In November, there were 287 package released on Hackage, bringing the total number of Haskell packages to 1720. We had a record 143 thousand downloads from Hackage in November, breaking the previous monthly record of 95 thousand set in October 2009, and bringing the total downloads from Hackage to 1.53M." http://haskellwebnews.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/whats-new-in-haskell-december-2009/ We average about 100k downloads a month (e.g. via cabal-install). Or 2-3 thousand downloads a day. More updates soon. -- Don _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
