I would caution you about doing any popularity data mining without a rationale for needing it to inform a existing policy dicussion where the decisions makers have requested the information. What exactly would be the point of mining the popularity of any software relative to another? There's absolute no decision point for the Fedora project where popularity of any single piece of software matters at the moment. We aren't talking about doing any sort of purging from the repository or anything like that. Just mining popularity information just to know, is not necessarily a constructive thing. It can be a contentious thing. And speaking as expert on bringing up contentious things, you might want to avoid it. -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
