It's not necessary to be so arrogant. In their email, they acknowledge that proxies etc. have influenced their stats. Their numbers are a lower bound, and if their update tool by default doesn't use non-RH mirrors, probably a quite reasonable one. I *guess* that Debian has a much higher percentage of downloads through mirrors where we don't have the log files compared to FC, so this obviously doesn't change that we won't be able to come even close to a reasonable lower bound, though. cheers -- vbi -- featured product: Debian GNU/Linux - http://debian.org
