Re: [linux-audio-dev] [OT?] Fun with numbers

It was pointed out that LAD can claim more than 700 members now. Very cool, I love it. I'm not sure exactly what those numbers mean, but I do know that only about 1/10 of that figure actually post regularly to the list. So out of the 700 only ~70 are consistent contributors. Again, I don't know what the numbers signify. I guess it's [your meaning here]. On January 7 Linux Journal On-line posted my second monthly column (this one about Planet CCRMA and AGNULA). I checked for the number of reads this morning: +10000. That's right, more than ten thousand in little over one week. I point this out not to shine my own light, but to indicate again that far more people are interested in Linux audio development than the mail lists' membership numbers suggest.
