I don't know what the real numbers are either, but currently about 5 people download GEM a day. Considering that it has been up for a couple of years now, my guess is that a thousand people have downloaded Pd/GEM...but I don't know how many people are actively using them.
Also, I have always said that I would be more than willing to provide a page for Pd/GEM resources. If any one has anything (example patches, demos, externals, abstractions, etc), let me know and I'll create an area for it.

btw, roughly how many pd users are there? does anyone have an idea?
Hi !
There are 75 mailing list subscribers. Some of them won´t do any work with pd, others who do are probably not subscribed. Actually I would like to see the list getting more a forum for "pd users" than for "pd linux installers". So feel free to ask any question or request which comes to your mind during pd usage. Additionally if someone has some thnigs to share with others, (externals, patches ...) we could set up a site for pd resources.

i published my pdlib and one gem example movie on my webserver.. (still undocumentated) this page is to provide pd and gem patches/libs/movies/sound only.
i think it would be more usefull if there are many automon pages instead of only one official page... like a decentral system. but in this case there sill a need for some coordination.
