Comment 638 for bug 1

Mhhh... I daily read posts at this "bug" since dec07, ... too much "Google-Trends-based guessing", imho. The ubuntu audience is an important parameter (it should be, otherwise we wouldn't spent so many time writing about it ;-). It deserves some better measure.

What about including something as a 'one time button' in ubuntu (not mandatory, of course), that simply would send a +1 to a counter at ubuntu's servers? Not quite a registration. I'm sure almost every user would be proud to push the button, and this would provide us a better idea about how the bug's progress. And surely would give us a nice surprise too...

JC, a happy thankful gnu linux debian ubuntu user.
