It looks like we'll hit 2 million sometime tomorrow (Saturday). If we wait until June 1st (Friday) we'll be around 2.5. But announcing on Friday is not good for getting press attention. And if we wait until the next week, June 4th, then we'll almost be at 3 million. So.... maybe we just make a smaller announcement, via ooo-dev/ooo-users and social media for the 2 million mark, when we actually hit it. Then for the larger Symphony announcement we also note the 1 year achievement as well as give an updated download count, 2.5 or 3.0 million, depending on when that is ready for release. > > >> A good problem to have ;-) >> >> -Rob >> >> > >> >> Maybe this can be combined with the piece on Symphony that Don was >> >> working on? >> > >> > >> > yes...good idea! >> > >> >> >> >> -Rob >> > >> > >> > -- >> > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> > MzK >> > >> > "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." >> > -- Mark Twain >> > > > > -- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > MzK > > "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." > -- Mark Twain
