Conrad,
1) Fear not, we are applying the Ubuntu patch at a rate of knots all
over the planet.
2) Fear not, we could help them with their math, but reading this page
http://www.onestatfree.com/aspx/category-detail-charts.aspx?category=4
I think we would be wasting energy. ;-) The first entry on there is
hardly likely to be getting many Linux hits, let alone Ubuntu, in fact
I can't see many of those entries getting the kind of traffic we can
generate. (Slashdot comes to mind.)
Regards,
Paul
