Re: Friends of GNOME September data

[Claus Schwarm <clschwarm googlemail com>]

Hi, 

since September was a release month, the increase wasn't really
surprising, wasn't it? According to the WebAlizer, we had over 110.000
more unique visits in September, compared to August.

BTW, it's been three month since I last mentioned it and we

 * still have no proper AB split testing framework in place,
 * still let Webalizer report visits to pages that don't exist, and
 * still have no FoG buttons on leading application pages.

I don't want to push it, but shouldn't we do something about it?

Regards,
Claus
