The popcon count reached 70 000, and then it started falling.  I have
no idea why, if it is a capasity problem with the service or if the
number of contributors really is dropping.  But I thought it best to
mention it.

It peaked on 2007-12-23 with 70346 submissions.

<URL:http://popcon.debian.org/> show that the reduction is in the
number of stable installations, not in the number of unstable or
testing installatiaons.  It might indicate a proble with stable, or as
I said, a problem with the popcon service.

Happy hacking,
