And some programmers believe there are no bugs in their code.
we have 15 active peers inculing large ones like giganews and news-service >> and are listed in the top 300 of the top1000.org newsgroup listings.
http://www.top1000.org/#what says:
What's this TOP1000 thing ?
The "TOP 1000 Usenet servers" aims to reflect the logical behaviour of
article flows inside Usenet. To achieve this, a number (350 as of 2006)
of participants send me the statistics computed on their servers.
So you can just send them your own statistics? How cool is that. I
wonder if my bank will let me decide how much money is in my account.
Anyone see "The Invention of Lying" yet?
If you would follow what they actually do then you would know that they
compute stats based on the X-PATH header info of each message, if 350
servers participate then they will pretty much gather 99% of all
newsgroup traffic.
