[all] Popularity contest

Hi all,

We don't have many statistics on the usage of our components as they are
mainly consumed through Maven. There is an interesting metric that can
be used to compare the components though, it's the Debian Popularity
Contest [1]. It gives an indication on how many systems have the library
installed.

Here is the summary for our components:

logging         78878
collections3    76924
beanutils       75111
digester        74953
compress        73104
codec           18889
lang            15779
cli             13144
io              10791
pool            10235
dbcp            10172
el               5502
net2             4960
collections      3952
configuration    2972
jxpath           2805
validator        2674
daemon           2663
jexl             2110
vfs              1877
net1             1804
math             1741
modeler          1646
launcher         1393
fileupload       1026
discovery         860
lang3             358
attributes        358
jci               203
openpgp           155
csv                85
exec               85
javaflow           20
email               0
chain               0
dbutils             0

email, chain and dbutils are not packaged in Debian.

As expected the usual suspects are on the top of the list, with some
surprises though. I didn't expect compress to have such a high score for
a rather young component.

The downside of this top 10 is the bias toward artifacts used by Maven
and its plugins. That doesn't give a good picture of the artifacts the
projects actually use.

AFAIK committers should be able to see maven central stats from
http://repository.apache.org (from Views/Repositories > Central
Statistics), but for some weird reason, I'm not able to see them
(though I can see Struts' ones)

What is really interesting to me is the maven top 10 most download of
the month [1]

For an ApacheCon talk I once analysed the transitive deps of all the
POMs of the central maven repo to get such a list.
That was fun, too :)
