Re: Can we measure Fedora users by language?

Yes +1

This relates to what Matthew mentioned in his Flock keynote about tracking Fedora usage and how to do that.

This could provide so much valuable information, so I really hope some will work on this.

An interesting question has been asked during the I18N track of
the last Flock: can we tell how many Fedora users actually use
a specific (human) language? This would help us answer the questions
like:

* do the translations increase the number of Fedora users?
* are there languages not really used by Fedora users?

This seems easy to measure if we are able to count the number of
downloads of specific packages, here langpacks would be interesting,
as a percentage of total Fedora installs. Note that the total sum
would probably be larger than 100% because an individual computer may
have multiple langpacks installed and also because a single IP may be
shared by multiple computers. This is still OK.

CC'ing Matthew Miller who collects and presents many Fedora statistics.
