Not really. Considering that: 1) iso downloads don't take yum upgrades into account, and 2) download statistics in general don't take local mirrors into account Smolt numbers show the people that voluntarily submit profiles. Download statistics show the number of downloads that hit the main servers. Neither can be used to derive estimators from the other. josh -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
