Don't waste your time. I am a retired American who is now living in the Philippines. All during RELEASE 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, and now 8.0 I have been running the bsdstats port on my single system. Yesterday I checked the http://bsdstats.org website by country and to my great surprise there are no Freebsd systems listed in the Philippines. Also the previous months reports are no longer shown on the website and the port stats don't show at all. This is not the results talked about on this list when the bsdstats project was trying to get Freebsd participation 3 years ago. The bsdstats website has been un-supported, un-updated for over 2 years and nobody noticed until I showed up in a country with out any Freebsd counts, but knowing I was reports regularly. What good is participation if there are no real-time results. I removed bsdstats from my system and the port should be removed from the ports system. I also emailed Marc G. Fournier <scrappy@hub.org> the author and never received a reply. That is the best sign that bsdstats is dead.
