Just to provide some closure on this. I watched the Ubuntu torrent tracker for a few hours today and saw the aggregate total downloaded column at the end of the table drop to a lower number. >From this I surmise that the ubuntu torrent tracker is not configured as I would expect. It seems like its purging its aggregate data nearly continuously. This makes it an invalid source of trending data. Evan, you might want to poke at a sysadmin inside your fenceline and see if they can change the behaviour so that its not purging its aggregate download stats so aggressively so that it can be used as a data source for release timescale and multi-release timescale trending. There's precious little publicly available information about linux distribution update trending. It seems a shame to squander Ubuntu's torrent tracker aggregate stats. -jef -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
