In other words, people care about and watch such numbers. We need to know what they are and have an interpretation for those numbers, at minimum to stand testament to someone else's story about those numbers. For example, Fedora was not broken out from Red Hat for a long time. Now I wonder, how much of Debian is Ubuntu? I know it's a popular desktop OS, but when it is used as a Web server, does it present itself as straight Debian, in terms of how Netcraft tracks? - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Content Services Fedora Documentation Project http://www.redhat.com/docs http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject
