Contributors ------------ - 35 signed-up contributors (i.e. with FSF papers), and more if you count the contrib directory and the Emacs maintainers who make small changes every now and then. Mailing list ------------ - Close to 800 subscribers to the mailing list. - More than 20000 messages in the mailing list archive on gmane.org, and quite a few more in my private mail archive, because it contains also messages sent to me and replied to by me privately. - As far as I can tell, we have not even had an attempt to start a flame in the mailing list (maybe thanks to the moderators, but I don't think so) - Absolutely no spam (definitely this is because of our excellent moderators!) Websites -------- - The main FSF page about Emacs (http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/) mentions 4 extensions as examples. Org-mode is one of them, together with Gnus, the Debugger, and the Calendar. - More than 200000 visits to the website orgmode.org in a single year. The only countries from which there have been no visits at all during that year are Greenland, Albania, Turkmenistan, Yemen, Guyana, and about 12 countries in Africa. - Lifehacker.com put Org-mode into its Outline Tools top-five selection list. - Typically 10 Twitter messages a day mention Org-mode. Google Tech Talk ---------------- - almost 50000 Views of the Google Tech Talk. This is almost as many as as the Google Tech Talks by the One Famous GTD Guru Merlin Mann: - "Inbox Zero" with about 60000 Views - "Time and Attention" with about 70000 Views There are only some 35 Google Tech Talks with more views, this is crazy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of this make me very proud. Thanks to all of you for making it happen. - Carsten
