</span>I'll be interested to see what others think, but about all I can say is<br>
that it is likely bigger than any of us realize, of course depending how<br>
you mark the boundaries of this "community".<br>
I recall being a bit amazed at the point when Scribus had a million<br>
downloads some years ago. We have those involved with the project, a<br>
rather small number, those who interact on various lists and forums, a<br>
quite larger number, but we also know there are many out there using<br>
Scribus, but never interact so that we might get a sense of this<br>
nebulous group of users.<br>
<br>
And this doesn't even touch the probably large numbers of users who are<br>
not English speakers, and have their own worlds of interaction. This is<br>
with just one libre graphics project.<br>
