Not really ... more interested in a simpler graph / #s that denote # of distinct hosts for each version of FreeBSD each month ... depending on the amount of data you can pull out of the logs, getting #s per country, and #s per top level domain (ie. yahoo.com) would be cool too ... Also: "gathering the access logs for portsnap.daemonology.net, portsnap1.freebsd.org, and portsnap2.freebsd.org" Are those the *only* portsnap servers, or are there more?
