[Webmacro-devel] Problem with SF WM stats?

[Marc P. <ma...@an...>]

Hi,

I just checked out the download stats on SF for WM and there's something=
=20
odd.

http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/?group_id=3D64597

It shows 525 downloads on 30 Dec 2002 and not one single download since.=


This doesn't sound right to me at all.=20

Any ideas? We need to be sure the stats are working before we make the=20=

press release... for a start this should propel us up the list of most=20=

popular projects.

I note that there are 5 or more other SF projects that use / mention WM.=

Yeah.  Those bastards really piss me off.

I've filed 2 or 3 support requests in the past about this (not the 
first time), and they basically say, "yeah, we're working on it".  Yet 
the problem continues to exist.  I didn't bother to report it this 
time.  I've just given up.

SF is a huge pita.  The *only* advantage is that it'll let somebody 
else release a release should I get hit by a big yellow bus.

Well it seems OK again now as we have stats for the Jan 6 =96 but I noti=
ce=20
that this same problem applied to other projects too (like SourceJammer)=
=20
so it's not just WM.
