I will push an article about this soon, but just FYI:

openSUSE has done EXTREMELY WELL with the 11.4 release! So everyone, 
stand up, give yourself a pat on the back - because this is your work!

Not just the hard work in the last 2-3 weeks, but also the work you have 
been doing as ambassadors around the world. Telling people about 
openSUSE is extremely important!!!

Some numbers:
well over 100.000 people have downloaded 11.4 within the first 24 hours! 
That is almost twice as many as 11.3!!!!!

over 12.500 used bittorrent, over 90.000 via download.opensuse.org - and 
we're not counting those who upgraded by themselves or used 
susestudio.com!!!

Awesome work ;-)

I also had a look at our openSUSE statistics on opensuse.org/Statistics.
Surprisingly, openSUSE is about 50% larger than fedora - I would've 
expected them to be bigger in terms of users... Compare for yourself at  
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Statistics
I wish Ubuntu would have numbers somewhere, they quoted between 6 and 8 
million in the past (which makes them about as big as openSUSE)
And I was thinking all that time openSUSE was lucky to be in the top-3 
of distro's...
But in reality, my friends, openSUSE is bigger than Fedora and might 
very well be bigger than Ubuntu!!

Feel free to tell others about that ;-)

Cheers and enjoy your weekends, you deserve it!
Hugs, Jos
