It'll use download stats and the count of anonymous build reports. It will not do what popcorn does which is look at how frequently installed programs are used.

[Haskell-cafe] popularity context with Cabal
Hi. Debian some time ago introduced the popularity context, to find the most installed/used packages: http://popcon.debian.org/ Is it possible to do something similar with Cabal? From popularity-context FAQ: "For each package, popularity-contest looks at the most recently used (based on atime) files, and reports the filename, its last access time (atime) and last change time (ctime). However, some files are not considered, because they have unreliable atime." "A computer 'vote' for a package if according to the data provided in the report, a program provided or depending on the package was used less than thirty days ago. This computation is performed by the popcon server." Manlio Perillo ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
