SourceForge reports downloads by country. It appears that the number of languages supported does not limit the locations where the downloads happen (although destination country is necessarily an estimate, just as it is on the ClustrMap of visitors to my web sites).
I assume that as language versions increase (as just happened in a refresh of AOO 3.4.1), the proportion of downloads will improve for countries where those languages are used/preferred by someone. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Italo Vignoli [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2013 09:26 To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: [tdf-discuss] How did AOO figure it was worth $21 Million dollars a day or $7 billion per year?

At least that's how I would do it. Average number of downloads per day, multiplied by 150 dollars (which is the inflated average price of MS Office Home, as the price is less than 80 dollars now). By the way, they claim 236 countries and territories while their language versions are around 10% than that.
