Nope.  It would not prove anything, as an increase could come from
several factors.  A decrease is a lot harder to explain as anything
else than a DOS issue, so I decided to test if that will happen first.

The version of popcon in testing is working fine, modulo the issue
with all clients in a given time zone reporting at the same time, so
we are not completely without popularity-contest in testing.  I am
confident this issue will be resolved before Lenny is released.
Perhaps even a backport to stable is a good idea. :)

Then it will not keep the new version out of testing, and our test
will be a bit harder to get results from.  I suggest it stay until we
conclude.

Happy hacking,
