Thanks. We have received several reports of exact location hits and
several that say that the markers were way off. So, it seems this is
still very in-accurate (which in a way is good for people who are
concerned about privacy issues). The only thing that we may be able to
trust is the country location.
For now, as Bill pointed out, it looks like a way of showing the reach
of Open Source projects. Specially interesting might be when we
compare several projects, e.g., MySQL vs. Postgresql, Python vs. PERL,
etc.

FWIW, it has me in completely the wrong part of the country, in an
area that
is not my address, nor my company's registered address, nor my ISP's
address,
nor even the datacentre where the publically-visible equipment
(servers)
lives. Nor, I should add, an area that has ever been any of the above,
so it's not simply old information.
But at least it puts me in the right country, which is arguably a step
in the
right direction from when google mapped me to Moscow!
