Evaluating the Debian Argus userbase.

[Yotam Rubin]

Greetings,

	Debian has a mechanism to evaluate the popularity of packages. The 
results of this `popularity contest' are available at:
http://people.debian.org/~apenwarr/popcon/. It is interesting to note that
ippl's[0] popularity is much higher than argus', 300 users vs. 2 users 
respectively. I've written an argus2ippl script which converts an argus flow
file to the format ippl users are accustomed to, so this will hopefully
change things a bit.

Just thought you might want to know.

	Regards, Yotam Rubin


[0] ippl is a very rudimentary connection logger. It does not provide 
     accurate output, mainly due to the fact that it uses a raw socket.
     This provides users with a false sense of protection/awareness.
