[Koha-devel] Anybody still using tarballs?

[Chris Cormack]

Morning

People are still downloading them, looking at the access logs on the server

 From this morning there are a few downloads, for example

[07/Nov/2023:04:17:18 +0000] "GET /koha-22.11.10.tar.gz HTTP/1.1" 200 
99643874 "https://download.koha-community.org/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 
10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) 
Chrome/118.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"

[07/Nov/2023:04:46:02 +0000] "GET /koha-latest.tar.gz HTTP/1.1" 200 
100758420 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) 
AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/119.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 
Edg/119.0.0.0"


I think it is worth keeping the.
I doubt anyone who is using them will be on the koha-devel list though, 
or maybe even the main list, so download statistics is probably the best 
metric we have.
