Re: [jazzplusplus-devel] File releases

[Dave F. <da...@da...>]

Here's our stats page, if you guys happen to get curious:

http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/?group_id=104252

18 downloads so far.  Not bad.  I released the first version of pyExtractor 
the same day, and it's got 16 downloads.  :)  (No history though, pyExtractor 
essentially appeared out of nowhere as far as anyone else is concerned)  No 
point, just that I'm checking stats right now of projects I've made releases 
for recently.  ;)

Page views are interesting.  I'll bet we'd easily start getting 50 downloads a 
day if we had a windows binary release.  *sigh*  So much work, so little 
time.  I want to move to Mars so I can have 30 hour days instead of these 
piddly 24-hour days.
