+<p><strong>Debian Architectures statistics.</strong> Petter Reinholdtsen
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/07/msg01325.html">\
+reported</a> about the architecture distribution in Debian, as reported
+by the <a href="http://popcon.debian.org">popularity contest</a>. He
+noted that the ARM port is gaining interest among more users whereas
+the Alpha and Sparc ports are losing market shares. Joey Hess <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/07/msg01362.html">\
+suggested</a> that the nslu2 machines are a
+good reason for this increase of ARM. The <a
+href="http://packages.debian.org/unstable/misc/popularity-contest">\
+popularity contest</a> package is also used to decide the installation
+CD a package will be in.</p>

 <p><strong>Security Updates.</strong> You know the drill.  Please make sure
 that you update your systems if you have any of these packages installed.</p>
