Henrik, can you to some grep,sort and wc to find out how big is the hb users community ?
415 subscribers to the mailing list currently, and another 100 that are only on the announce-list. Total of 513.
It is also interesting that there have been about 1200 downloads of Hobbit from Sourceforge every month since April: http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/detail.php?group_id=128058&ugn=hobbitmo... There were over 2000 downloads in August, but that was probably due to the release of Hobbit 4.2.0.
I dont think that each and every one of the 500 subscribers to the mailing lists go and fetch a fresh copy of Hobbit every two weeks. So the community of Hobbit users is probably somewhere into a few thousand people.
(Which, by the way, is a lot more than I had ever anticipated :-))
Regards, Henrik
