Just about zero. I've asked, but that was a while ago, and things might have changed. But, for instance, when I asked (ca. 3-5 years ago), SuSE, RH, Ubuntu (more recently) didn't really respond with meaningfully useful numbers, as these would indicate their own sales numbers. We can, however, use the estimates given for Linux, under the forgiving assumption that if it is Linux it is also OOo. > There are > also non-linux repositories: > > http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/openofficeorg.html > > http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/en/search.shtml?token=openoffice > > ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/README-all.html > > etc. > > Regards, > /Lars What counts, finally, is adding not the individual Linux users but major enterprise (public and private) adoptions. And then entering this data (docketing it) at the Major Deployments and Market Share pages on the wiki: See http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Major_OpenOffice.org_Deployments It links to other useful pages on the wiki. I use this page quite often to underscore OOo's deployment. It is of utmost importance that we have such data to point both the brave and quisling CIOs, CTOs, and others to: it's what they need to make their arguments.
