Yesterday evening I found the following DownLoads (D/L) statistics, until I
got bored:

(incomplete)

IMHO:

1) the 147 k D/Ls looks like a (realistic ?) number of total D/L for all
gEDA related packages and files ever.

2) SF math s*cks !

I hope Launchpad does it's math better.

Just my somewhat more informed opinion ;-)

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.
