Very interesting stats. Thank you!

Can we perhaps please consider this topic "done like dinner"?

I'm truly impressed by the total number of e-mails that have managed
to stay lumped as one thread (I'm at 115 and counting... that includes
a few off topic ones).

It seems we have a number of people who are very passionate about this
issue. Whether that passion is misplaced is hard for me to judge
reliable (though, instinctively I strongly suspect that it IS... a
sysadmin is NOT a normal Ubuntu user, nor is an ISP operator).

Anyway, have a merry pagan and/or yuletide and/or solstice and/or
holiday season holiday and a happy new year* <out of breath... and
breath :-)>.

*preferably a new year when we don't see "Ubuntu is under attack" (or
one of its spawn) in our inboxes

Eric.
