I personally don't like the collection of any information. Though it doesn't stress me. Here in Australia there isn't a decent mirror to use (the ones listed on the opensuse.org site are dreadfully behind and are never updated). As such I manually select one that is fresh. If a user has been smart enough to move away from Windows to run Linux as their desktop -- they are smart enough to figure out what mirror to use... Statistics for usage -- I can understand... though some more thought could have gone into it. I understand 'download' numbers are hard to collect and in any instance -- 1 download could be installed numerous times. Guess they are damned if they do, damned if they dont. :( -- Matt Bottrell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
