This is the way I plan to extract the measurements:

  ssh popcon.debian.org
  (cd /org/popcon.debian.org/popcon-mail/all-popcon-results; \
   for f in  popcon-2008-03-*.gz; do \
     echo -n "$f: "; zcat $f |egrep 'Submi|Release: 1.44'; \
   done)

The current result (to early to conclude, I belive) is

  popcon-2008-03-01.gz: Submissions:    76046

  Release: 1.44                              77

Must admit I am surprised to see some decrease already, with 77
machines upgraded to version 1.44 in unstable, and down 21
submissions.

I'm on vacation and offline until sunday, so I will not do anything
more with this until then.  I suspect we should wait for 20 days
before we know, which is the period a submission is kept before it is
removed, if it isn't updated by the client.

Happy hacking,
