Maybe this could be merged with the popularity-contest submissions. I'm not too familiar with how the point releases are identified, but there's probably a way to tell whether someone downloaded a package, or compiled it on their own machine. This way, you could compile a bunch of packages, and the information would get mailed out only once a week (which could be handy for laptops). Of course, this would require a little more advocacy of popularity-contest, besides any changes to the inner workings of the code. -- Charles Lepple [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
