Hi All, In September 2007 the PMC Chair of our project reported to the board of the ASF the following numbers regarding subscription to the projects mailing lists:
- user@ofbiz: 515 - dev@ofbiz: 380 - commits@offbiz: 100 In March of 2010 the PMC Chair reported the following numbers: - user@ofbiz: 718 - dev@ofbiz: 466 - commits:@ofbiz: 218 These numbers show significant increases from 2007 to 2010 across all mailing lists, and indicate that we may have a healthy project. But how are the numbers these days? Are they still rising, or are they on the decline?
