Stats for the OpenOffice.org download bouncer

Many of the OpenOffice.org national language teams will be happy with the following announcement.

There are now Download Statistics being produced for the downloads from the bouncer. The stats are generated once daily around 08:05 UTC. Inside the stats folder you will find a series of folders with dates as their name. Inside each of these, you will find a series of files that contain a few different breakdowns of the stats for each particular day. 

For example, 20070621/macos-alllangs.txt shows the number of downloads on the 21st of June 2007, broken down by download for each possible download. I find it strange that there has been 135 downloads for the Mac OS X PPC en-US version of 2.1.0, which is a very old build. The newer OpenOffice.org 2.2.0 for Mac OS X PPC en-US has less than 3 times more downloads. I'm wondering where the 2.1.0 build is linked from.

For a language example, 20070621/allos-de.txt shows a count of all the German downloads on the 21st of June 2007. The most popular German build on that day being Mac OS X Intel, with 102 downloads.

Thanks go to Michael Marineau from OSUOSL for setting up the script.

Please note that these are simply raw requests and and the script that produces them doesn't take into account builds that don't exist, but were requested for. Unfortunately there is no week, month or year view of the data at this time. 

The files do mention all version of OpenOffice.org from 2.1.0 up to and including 2.4.0. This has been done so that they will not need to be updated for each release.

QATrack Moved, but no RSS feed at it's new home

It seems that the OpenOffice.org QATrack has moved from http://www.qatrack.org/ to http://qatrack.services.openoffice.org/ and has lost it's RSS feed in the process.

Record Number of Locales Passed QA for OpenOffice.org 2.1 on the Mac

At this writing there are currently 3 locales passed QA and available to download, for OpenOffice.org 2.1 Mac OS X Intel and 5 for the PPC Macs. That gives a total of 6 unique locales that have been passed QA on both the PPC and Intel Mac platforms for OpenOffice.org 2.1. This is a record. Previously only English, German and French were put through their paces to check their functionality and links posted on the Mac Download pages. With the help of QATrack I'm able to find out which locales are being tested, and if they have been distributed to the mirrors.
There are still more currently being tested.
