WordPress 1.2 was downloaded over a hundred thousand times. About two-thirds of that was through the new download system where we can track stats better. It’ll be interesting to see the download rate of 1.2.1 (and subsequently 1.3). (7)
That’s a lot. How’s your bandwidth contract? 
WordPress is gaining in on the others (errr… the few that are bigger). Good.
What will skew that are people like me who have many installs and will make just one download … but hey, it gives you a ballpark, no?
I just hope these new stats don’t cause us to hear complaints about “$0.38 per download.” Although I guess that would help defray the bandwidth cost.
Man I wish we had $0.38 per download!
I’m interesting to see the download rate of 1.3
> subsenquently 1.3
I’m thrilled! How soon is the “subsequently” going to be? 
What I miss is a detailed explanation of what has changed. Since I have modified quite some files on several blogs, and do not know which files have actually changed. What if I have modified that critical file and do not replace it?
