aoo-3.4.0-incubating-src.tar.gz 1,148
aoo-3.4.0-incubating-src.zip 620

But I assume most developers who are serious about the source code
would check it out directly from Subversion.  I don't have numbers for
that.

As we know there have been over 11 million downloads of the binaries
in this same time period (since May).  I assume the ratio would be
similar for other end-user facing open source projects, like Firefox,
7-ZIP, etc.  But projects that are developer-oriented, delivering
libraries, probably have a different ratio, one that has a larger
proportion of source downloads.
