We are nearing 5 hours on the roll call - remember to get count reply
to: Roll Call - Stand Up for Users' Group
This thread is to keep track of responders
So far
1 - Unaffiliated
2 - Internet Only UG's
3 - Not in the US (only listed this way to get a relative percent of
people willing to respond)
19 - US Mugs
using the base number of 256 US mugs (it a best guess) we are still
only hearing from 7.5% - 8% of the potential MUG's - not really
scientific at all - just to be illustrative.
Also, the balance of the world needs to chime in (sssh, I think they
might be sleeping :-D )
Give your MUG a SHOUT OUT!! (respond to: Roll Call - Stand Up for
Users' Group)

Interesting fact - the Apple site lists ~512 UG's in the US (so the
doesn't even count the balance of the world, I don't know how to get
that data). One point of the exercise is to see how many MUG's are
"plugged in" - Let's assume the 50% of the list are now defunct
groups - 256 will be the number to compare to.
So far we've had responses from:
At 12:45 EDT 10/18
After only a short time we have:
1 - Unaffiliated
2 - Internet Only UG's
2 - Not in the US (only listed this way to get a relative percent of
people willing to respond)
7 - US Mugs
So, between 2% to 3.5% of the US MUG's (see note below) are hearing
this and responding.
sorry non-US MUG's I just don't have those numbers - it would be very
interesting, though, if non-US MUGS responded in larger numbers than
US MUG. Keep it coming!
there is a range there depending on ow you want to count internet only
- I didn't check to see if they were included on the Apple website.
