Actually, this is on our TODO list, and will be considered a seperate 'opt-in' from the 'devices' stats, so that ppl can participate without having to "do it all" ...

Hello, Firstly, great movement and thanks for doing this. However, I think idea of BSD statistics project can be extended over packages as well. Right now it often comes to frustration to see, i.e., tons of rarely used by anyone packages on 4 distribution CDs, but no such a useful package as SDL (as least, this is true for 4.11-RELEASE). AFAIK, Debian project offers their users some script that collects and submits for analysis their list of installed packages, which in turn helps them to come with essential packages on CD1, less important but still popular ones on CD2, then all the day down to CDn (I've heard they have 7 of them. Oh boy). What do people think about it? ./danfe P.S. I'm quite aware of high probability of "do it first, then come later and show us it works" kind of answer. I am willing to participate in actual design and implementation, but first I'd like to hear what portmgr@ (packagers, even) and general public think of it. Thanks.
