I provided the "[REPORT] Apache OpenOffice ODF in the Marketplace - AOO 4.1.1 Downloads" in response to this question. It is possible to customize those queries in terms of calendar and also by the version of the release that the binaries are from.
Is that good enough for the student's purposes? Note that determining "Open Source Adoption" because the intention is to use open-source software and to simply have free to download-and-use software are not necessarily the same thing. It's simpler when the availability of the source code is tied to people using it for study, QA, or some development purpose outside the project. In that case, downloads of the source code and the SDK might be better indicators. SVN checkouts and Git clones might be more indicative as part of that. I suppose that some might think that the software being open-source is some assurance that its availability will be sustained, and it could be chosen for that reason as well, not just ideological ones. - Dennis PS: We have a similar problem with regard to whether adopters of the software do so because it is ODF that is important or the ability to work acceptably with Microsoft Office document formats is the dominant factor, whether Microsoft Office itself is available on the same platform or not. The same can be said for supporting WordPerfect format. > -----Original Message----- > From: JZA [mailto:acolor...@gmail.com] > Sent: Sunday, November 8, 2015 18:09 > To: dev <dev@openoffice.apache.org> > Subject: Re: 0 Downloads on stats > > As a sidenote the stats havent been updated in 3 months, so would be > nice > to do this. > > On Sun, Nov 8, 2015 at 8:06 PM, JZA <acolor...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Giving some information to a student doing a paper on Open source > > adoption, I notice that the stats failed recording the downloads from > our > > provider. > > http://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html > > > > On 7/17/2015 we had a 0 download that day.
