Dear all, Unforunately there was another error in the hostcount figures I published yesterday. FR showed a decrease of 572 whereas they really had an increase of 17513 hosts. This also influences the total numbers. Below you can find a whole new version of the hostcount. The information on the ftp and on the web site has been updated as well. Sorry for this mistake. It's time to go on vacation ;-) Kind Regards, Mirjam ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the hostcount for June 1997. The table shows an increase since last month of almost 140,000 (or 3.0%) to a total of over 4,730,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. This comes to an increase of 12.4% over the last quarter. The UK shows the highest increase for June with more than 43,000 hosts more than in May. The hostcount can also be found under ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount. The graphical version of the hostcount can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount/RIPE-Hostcount-{Mo,Qu}.eps The translation of the country codes can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes All this data can also be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount.html If you are intersted in the historic hostcount data, bunyip Information Services is hosting the complete set of data since 1994 under ftp://ftp.bunyip.com/pub/netstats/ripe I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: at Gerhard Winkler <winkler@cc.univie.ac.at> be Herman Moons <Herman.Moons@CS.kuleuven.ac.be> ch Marcel Schneider <hostmaster@nic.ch> cy Panagiotis Tzounakis <pj@ics.forth.gr> cz Jiri Orsag <Jiri.Orsag@eunet.cz> de Peter Koch <pk@TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> dk Robert Martin-Legene <robert@dknet.dk> es Jose Sanchez-Seco <jose.sanchez@rediris.es> fi Petri Ojala <ojala@eunet.fi> fr Annie Renard <Annie.Renard@inria.fr> gr Dimitris Zisiadis <zisiadis@forthnet.gr> hr Ivan Maric <Ivan.Maric@stribor.srce.hr> hu Gabor Kiss <kissg@sztaki.hu> ie Mike Norris <mnorris@dalkey.hea.ie> il Sason Levi <sason@NetVision.net.il> it Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito@nis.garr.it> no Havard Eidnes <Havard.Eidnes@runit.sintef.no> pl Mirek Luc <mirek@nask.pl> pt Armando Domingues <fccn@dns.pt> ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov <adbr@ripn.net> sk Ivan Lescak <Ivan.Lescak@Slovakia.EU.net> Lubos Elias <Lubos.Elias@uakom.sk> sm Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito@nis.garr.it> tr Yener Yigit <yener@knidos.cc.metu.edu.tr> uk Kevin Hoadley <K.Hoadley@nosc.ja.net> Robert Stone <robert@nosc.ja.net> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
