Re: About FreeBSD.org visitors

However these users spend more time than any other user per page. - Non-bouncing users had an average of just over 4 pages per session but spent about an average of 0.86/s per page. They spend most of their time on the last page. From these I think we can take away that most people come looking for something very specific. How can we fix this? Better search maybe? Improved navigation bar? Its up to you to work on this. - New users spend a lot *less* time on the site than repeat visitors. Do we need better advocacy data? Less text to confuse new users? Is this trend specific to FreeBSD or is it true across the board? - Internet Explorer is 10% of our traffic. Many of ours users use Windows as there primary desktop platform. Probably more if we include not-IE on Windows. What other insights do you see? What other data might be helpful for us? I thought we were going to see what pages are being hit the most, what kind of search patterns people use to find us (and pages we host), so that we can anticipate that there are perhaps searches that we do not provide content with effectively, or that the download and security information pages are being requested most often, so that we can make sure that vital and accurate information is printed there. For me, your PDF does not say anything at all, because the why's cannot be filled in with this information. What were people looking for and what did they hit? Download FreeBSD and getting the page Why contribute to FreeBSD doesn't satisfy the download request so we should adopt it. Nice graphs, useless information (imo).

The are currently working on Windows and iOS API/drivers. They are going to have open source version, but they do not have the bandwidth. I have talked with them we can get 5 units for BSD. No one (yet) in Silicon Valley has been able to tell me who in the FreeBSD core team I should talk to. Any help here? Jesse Hi Jesse, Perhaps you can share what kind of people you are actually looking for? If you need device driver writers, you are better of on the hack...@freebsd.org mailing list, if you need other people, then we might need to consider using a different mailing list as well. Perhaps you can send that information to me and together we can find out who to contact?

Re: Happy Birthday Charlie Root. Charlie Whom, btw?
Doing a guess here; I think the FreeBSD project (or his grandparents) started at that date root is the super user for *BSD and Unix derived system and celebrates it's 14th birthday :-) I would not know though why it was called Charlie Root, perhaps Kirk (Mckusick) knows? :-) Cheers, remko On Tue, June 19, 2007 10:40 pm, Patrick Tracanelli wrote: For some time I believed that Charlie Root was somehow related to the baseball guy, C.
