All, The SUSE Studio statistics and the openSUSE statistics don't seem to agree very well. Reference: https://www.suse.com/company/press/2012/2/latest-suse-studio-user-statistics... http://lizards.opensuse.org/2013/08/23/more-on-statistics/ "To date, there are more than 233,500 registered users who have built more than 1,128,000 appliances in SUSE Gallery. More information can be found at www.suse.com/products/susestudio/features/whats-new.html." SUSE Studio allows both SLES and openSUSE appliances to be built, but it seems reasonable to assume the majority of the above are working with openSUSE. Those are pretty massive numbers. Comparing those numbers to the openSUSE numbers something seems wrong. Total ISO downloads of openSUSE is measured in 100's of thousands per month. Unique UUIDs is less than 500K. RE: downloads The most popular appliance in the SUSE Studio gallery is an opensuse based appliance http://susestudio.com/a/TadMax/owncloud-in-a-box. That one appliance has been downloaded over 30,000 times. I assume that's 30,000+ downloads that were missed. The total openSUSE downloads should be increased by the openSUSE appliance downloads from susestudio? Is the number of openSUSE based appliance downloads available? Is it available by openSUSE release? Can anyone provide a count of downloads in recent months? RE: Users Well under 500K openSUSE users and yet there are almost 250,000 SUSE Studio users. That seems hard to believe. I'm guess the 250,000 is cumulative. Is there a way to get a count of how many of those accounts have had even a single login in the last 12 months? RE: UUIDs It seems unbelievable that there is a million plus appliances and less then 500K UUIDs getting updates. Do VM appliances downloaded from susestudio then run inside a VM each get a unique UUID, or are the multiple instances failing to be counted? Is there someway going forward to have the UUID encode the source of install. ie. From a normal openSUSE ISO of from a SUSE Studio download. Maybe the appliances tend to be used and not updated via the update repos?
