The download numbers before were using the direct download command shown on this wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Statistics/Commands There was at least one major problem with that command; the Fedora 10 Live ISO filenames don't start with "Fedora-10," they start with "F10," meaning we weren't counting them *at all*. So I've included two counts, one for the DVD and one for the Live ISO as clicked from the get-fedora page. (Other spins, as far as I can tell, are done via torrent and we're capturing those statistics from the tracker elsewhere.) The second problem may not be a real problem -- it's that we are uniq-ing the IP addresses doing the downloading. That method has the potential to cut out legitimate, repetitive downloads from inside a firewall. I'd feel better cutting those ticks out if they were separated by a very short timeframe. Then we could be reasonably certain they were caused by repeated clicks, rather than actual separate downloads. In the interest of a conservative approach, I'm willing to stick with uniq-ing the stats, but I produced both sets of numbers anyway. -- Paul W.
