In times of SqueakPeople I developed a tiny app to have a sort
of statistics of squeakers,

My app with a set of data of SqueakPeople (not complete, I don't have
the mails for example) is
still running at:
http://squeakpeoplestats.seasidehosting.st/seaside/SqueakPeopleStats

Just in case of utility.

Cheers.
