I got some free time on the holidays and slightly updated the download statistics page of PoD, in order to make it a bit more convenient.
A little bit of effort can make a beautiful combination of a docbook Website technology and Google Visualization API. I learned how to introduce custom docbook elements to docbook Website schemas and this helped to properly marry it with Google charts.
Stats are updated automatically and, thanks to docbook technology, the page is generated automatically as well. All is going via a Git repository. The whole process, including publishing of the site, is completely automated.
I am so much in love with DOCBOOK!!!
Now, concerning the stats. Since June, 2010, PoD was downloaded 179 times from 13 countries.
56% of downloads are made from different locations in Germany. Not a surprise, since PoD was started in terms of the D-Grid project and was developed in Germany and the first stable version was used in GSI (Germany), where, for the first time in the world ;), a production "static" PROOF cluster was staged out in favor of PROOF via PoD.
I will be not tired to repeat, that these are very good results for such a specific product like PoD is.
Here you have some screenshots:
