AFAIK smolt depends on portage ATM, but the particular versions installed and percentage for each could be /very/ helpful as more people run smolt. Also, it obviously doesn't matter much this early in the game, but as time goes on, getting a snapshot of responses per month and quarter could be useful. And is there an anonymous ID number or other means taken to ensure that a user that reports daily is going to refresh his own stats, but not crowd out the guy reporting monthly or quarterly? (My apologies if I missed discussion of this earlier; I wasn't paying too much attention to the finer details.) How often /should/ we update? Every time we sync and finish our routine updates? Only once a quarter? -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs. "Every nonfree program has a lord, a master -- and if you use the program, he is your master." Richard Stallman
