[Dev] Re: Chandler 0.6 download metrics - fixed a bug

[Pieter Hartsook]

Bear,

This looks better, but I also find suspicious the number of downloads
of 0.4and earlier versions on all platforms, but especially on the
Mac. How are
people finding those links, why are they downloading 1-2 yr. old versions of
the product? If these numbers are script artifacts, maybe we could fix that
too? If they really are legit downloads, maybe we should make getting those
older versions more difficult and try to direct folks to the current
version.

Also, it might be good to start a new download table for 2006 with just the
current versions on the wiki page so you don't have to wade through so much
old data to see what's happening.

Thanks for doing this.

Pieter
