That's really annoying, beside the fact that the data is useless.

BSDstats: May Statistics - 23 998 Hosts Reported In
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 As of June 5th, 2008, the project is seeing 23 998 hosts reporting in, with a break down as follows: PC-BSD 14 715 hosts FreeBSD 6 331 hosts DesktopBSD2 662 hosts NetBSD 108 hosts MirBSD 68 hosts OpenBSD 59 hosts DragonFly27 hosts MidnightBSD 22 hosts GNU/kFreeBSD 6 hosts We currently have hosts being reported in from 121 countries, with the top 10 being: United States 5 639 Russian Federation 1 653 Germany 1 489 Australia 1 314 Brazil 1 242 Japan 1 004 France823 United Kingdom822 Ukraine 790 Canada747 Project URL: http://www.bsdstats.org Project Objective: The mission of this site is to compile semi-accurate numbers for advocacy and marketing of the *BSD operating systems. PC-BSD, to the best of our knowledge, is the only one that defaults to enabled, while the rest have to be enabled manually. For FreeBSD users, you just need to install /usr/ports/sysutils/bsdstats to set things up. If you aren't participating, we very much encourage you to start ... the report script is a shell script, so you can scan it to figure out what, exactly, is being sent in .. and there is only one level of reporting that is required, and that is Operating System + Version ... Device and Ports reporting are 100% optional ... For those that are participating ... once more, thank you ... and spread the word, we need more ... Thanks to the folks at PC-BSD, we have a new PHP programmer that will be working with Antony Mawer towards cleaning up / finishing some of the outstanding areas of the web site, so expect to see some improvements in statistics reporting over the next few weeks. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me ... - -- Marc G. FournierHub.Org Hosting Solutions S.A. (http://www.hub.org) Email . [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSN .

For FreeBSD, the owner must know about the stats and configure them to be submitted. That is why we're working on both improving the site itself (fixing issues with the sub-release areas), as well as trying to a more regular monthly notice up ... I find a jump in stats each time I do so as more ppl find out about it ... Report I did a few months back shows only 85 Countries reporting in, so although its just one host here and there, adding 40 new countries is cool ... - -- Marc G.
