[Bioc-devel] download stats

[Hervé Pagès]

Hi Antonio,

Yes the stats for November look low compared to the previous months.
Looks like we'll hardly hit the 30000 distinct IPs for the whole
Bioconductor software repository. Could be genuine though. I'll check
what's going on.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention,
H.
