Popularity-contest passes 20000 submitters
I'm happy to report that today Debian popularity-contest passed 20000
participants/machines. On <URL:http://popcon.debian.org/> you can see
20005 submissions considered. :)
>From the stats, one can see that these are the 10 most used non-Debian
packages (http://popcon.debian.org/unknown/by_vote):

As you can see, multimedia tools are the most popular tools currently
missing in the Debian archive. Not too surprising. :)
The submitters are also providing information on their architecture.
This give a nice view on the diversity of the Debian community.
