With that said, I do use the zip files (or compile it myself whenever possible). I really don't care for the installers. Well, that's it I guess. Good luck on building the end-all, be-all toolkit-based suite SeaMonkey 2.0.

>380k Downloads for SeaMonkey 1.1.1
Yes, you read this right in the topic: SeaMonkey 1.1.1 has more than 380k officially recorded downloads!
To be exact, the "bouncer" download redirecting tool recorded 381,196 downloads for SeaMonkey 1.1.1 from its release on February 28 until the release of 1.1.2 yesterday - for the three main download links on our websites only, i.e. Windows installer, Linux installer and MacOS X Disk Image, in English language.
Downloads of any other builds (.zip or tarballs, other platforms and other languages) are not counted, as well as downloads that are issued directly from FTP servers, or through other means of distribution (Linux distro packages, etc.) - so the real number is probably significantly higher, but we don't know such numbers. What we know are bouncer statistics (links to download.mozilla.org go through this tool), and only those.
A graph of bouncer downloads for all releases since 1.0 nicely shows how numbers are rising:
Of course, the long period between 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 has helped a lot to reach such heights, but still this shows that a significant group of people is interested in the SeaMonkey suite.
I hope numbers continue to increase like that in the future - and thanks for every one of those people who downloaded our software and hopefully are also using it!
