Guys,
CentOS is not doing very well at this ranking site:

We need some good foo there, so if you like CentOS, go there and rank us ...

Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Hey Johnny:
I gave my good foo and i would like to thank the developers and maintainers of CentOS. You perform a marvelous service to the Linux community at large and your efforts go unheralded. This includes allowing OT discussions on the mail list such as the current OT: internal imap server thread. Great discussion going on there with a lot of useful information that could of easily been stopped by over zealous moderators.
Thank again,
Ed

Johnny,
Been there, voted that :), although I voted in the past too.
However, CentOS is: -- Distrorankings: #13 -- Distrowatch 6m: #14 -- Distrowatch 30d: #14
Pretty much the same, and this is not bad, given the public who's visiting this kinda sites is: -- people in quest of the 'latest and greatest' (KDE5 if possible :)); -- people happy with one-man kitchen-baked distros (MEPIS, etc.); -- people unaware what means a business-oriented approach (they can reinstall every day and they don't have critical data, nor necessary uptime).
Thanks for your good work! (the said) Béranger

For those of us who don't have time to wade through the site, is 1 good or is 10 good? It's not apparent (at least not to me) which end of the scale is considered good.
Cheers,
I agree with Chris. Which end of the scale is which?
10 is best.

Only a 6% spread across the top 10. And Slackware at the top. It must be a fluke... somebody voted more than once ... I demand a recount!

It was those rascals in Florida (or was it Ohio?) stuffing the ballots again. :)

Hanging chads!!! My ballot was too complicated. "Isn't CentOS those things you drop into a bottle of diet Coke? http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1450915772177922792 "
;-)
I just tried to add some love from home, but can't get to that site now. Did we crash it?
