This is very cool. What is up with NetBSD and OpenBSD. Are these numbers
accurate?

Subject: BSDstats: New High Water Mark: 25 000+ Hosts Reporting In
As of November 3rd, 2008, the project has hit a new milestone of 25 000+
hosts
reporting in, with a break down as follows:

DesktopBSD 1 919 hosts
NetBSD 86 hosts
MirBSD 21 hosts
OpenBSD 55 hosts
DragonFly 26 hosts
MidnightBSD 26 hosts

We currently have hosts being reported in from 135 countries, with the top

Germany 1 586
Australia 1 341

France 930

Brazil 729
Project URL: http://www.bsdstats.org
Project Objective:
"The mission of this site is to compile semi-accurate numbers for advocacy
and
marketing of the *BSD operating systems."
PC-BSD, to the best of our knowledge, is the only one that defaults to
enabled,
while the rest have to be enabled manually.
For FreeBSD users, you just need to install /usr/ports/sysutils/bsdstats to
set
things up.
If you aren't participating, we very much encourage you to start ... the
report
script is a shell script, so you can scan it to figure out what, exactly, is
being sent in .. and there is only one level of reporting that is required,
and that is Operating System + Version ... Device and Ports reporting are
100%
optional ...
For those that are participating ... once more, thank you ... and spread the
word, we need more ...
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me ...
