[Nottingham] What it takes for a new distro...

[Martin]

Folks,

Just one example for a new distro:

Mandriva Desktop 2011 in round figures
http://koryavov.net/post/9542732436/mandriva-desktop-2011-in-round-figures

...

* more than 35 000 cups of tea and coffee have been drunk by our
workers while we prepared our new distros;

* more than 50 active maintainers;

* more than 22600 packages in repositories;

...


And lots of code and data! All by the power of Free/Libre Open Source
Software...

Phew!
Martin
