We'll still get a (geographically-biased) sample from distfiles.macports.org with mirror sorting enabled. At the very least we'll get lower bounds for the overall download numbers. Besides, the stats will get better once again when we start distributing binaries, right? ;-) - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
