So.. I was checking the subscription stats for http://feeds.joomla.org/JoomlaSecurityNews as I usually do and noticed that finally things are on the improve. We're now starting to see 100's of people each day subscribing either via email or RSS. At this time we have 5145 people subscribed. I'll start to get even more excited when that figure gets into the 10's of thousands.

Obviously this is due to all the help the community is doing to share this link and encourage others to subscribe. We've also added this option directly to the Joomla download page as was suggested by a community member (well, something similar).

Thanks again everyone, and keep up the great support. Joomla wouldn't be as popular as it is without all of your help.

PS Don't forget to subscribe other areas of the project, see: www.joomla.org/rss.html

That is indeed good news. But it's never going to get to 100% for a whole host of reasons.

I wonder how many website administrators thare are out there given that there are so many Joomla websites?
Also how many orphan websites that aren't being activly maintained anymore?

Just 5 thousand?! Joomla has millions of downloads and just 5 thousand people are interested in security stuff?! I find this unbelievable. I thought they were more.. Anyway, you are doing a great work. After all, you can`t force ppl to be interested in their sites security...

While Joomla has been downloaded millions of times, you have to remember that it hasn't been downloaded by millions of people. 5,000 subscribers may actually count for a much more significant number of websites.
