Lot more data points now. Pattern is quite clear: everyone is either
migrated already or will migrate soon. Really increases my confidence
in 1.5.2 to see so many adopting it so quickly.

Until Google commissions a real scientific adoption rate survey
similar to the one Adobe did for Flash, this will have to do. Thanks
for the data, it allowed me to decide my library didn't need to bother
supporting 1.4.62 in future releases--saving me lots of time and
effort.
