No way, that's way to Orwellian, it would give Mageia a really bad reputation. A rough count of installs can be done by counting the number of unique IPs accessing the updates, of course this won't be precise (proxies, etc) but it should give a rough estimate, there is no need for precise numbers. -- Mageia ML Forum Gateway: http://mageia.linuxtech.net/forum/
