A small amount of jubilation is due...
on one of the first days of January, my Linux Counter passed 10.000 registered
Linux users.



Status of the Linux counter, as of Fri Jan 13 11:01:30 MET 1995

There are 10256 registered Linux users

I estimate this as being between 0.2 and 5% of the total number of Linux users,
giving the total community size something between 205.120 and 5.128.000 members.

See the file README.ESTIMATES for the details of why I think so.
