Dear All, Below is the hostcount for January 2004. The table shows an increase since last month of over 1,249,000 (or 5.9%) to a total of almost 22,310,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The fr domain shows the highest increase for January with approximately 627,500 hosts more than in December. IPv6 'AAAA' records account for approximately 0.33% of records counted. Background information and more statistics are available at http://www.ripe.net/hostcount/ - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - 'ru' was removed from the count. We have been unable to get a collection for too long. A first draft of IPv6-related statistics is at the very end of this email. These are not yet available on the website. - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by running a local count: ad Joan Marc Lauga am Hrant Dadivanyan at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy Vasoula Papapetrou cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk DK Hostmaster es Fco.
