So: 50K * (5 to 100 non members of PMI) * (2 to 3 per team not PMs) *
80% tool penetration

is somewhere between 400,000 and 12,000,000 Project users. Using 1K
Ldraw users is 400 to 12,000 times as many Project users. So 4,000
wasn't a bad shoot from the hip answer.

Ok...  I'd take a shot that there are maybe 1000-1500 LDraw users.  There
are a lot of hits to ldraw.org, average of about 70 pages/hr from a couple
weeks ago.  I don't have up to the minute stats on it.

PS : We NEED to see if we can get your posting fixed, you never seem to
be threaded right when viewed from a newsreader... did you ever track
down what the issue was there?

Yeah we do.  I didn't track it down, but its my email program, Eudora Pro
4.2 (according to Todd).  I'm hoping when 5.0 comes out it will be
corrected.  I wonder if some of the Lugnet software could be written to
adjust to Eudora users, I'm sure I'm not the only one who uses Lugnet
[1].  I don't like Outlook or Outlook Express, so I don't want to make the
switchover.

[1] Todd, how does the software handle threads from news-by-mail users?

ObCredentials: Former PMI member, former Project Manager, former Program
Manager, fairly skilled Project user, fairly skilled user population

Watch out, we have a professional on our hands ;) <ducks, runs>
