HES SUBSCRIBER REPORT, Sep'97                                   Paul Wendt 
-----------------------------                                    28 Sep 97 
1 Suppl: Geographic Distribution 
 
 
HES email list has 414 subscribers on 1 Sep 97.  (That counts persons, not 
addresses, and omits 15 students leftover from one Spring'97 course.) 
 
Seven quarterly snapshots cover the 18 months since HES joined eh.net, 
based at Miami University, Ohio USA.  The current snapshot appears in the 
first column of numbers at left, with quarterlies beginning March 1996 at 
right; thus the first two columns show our 18-month growth at eh.net.

SUBSCRIBERS BY COUNTRY  
 
"Countries" are generally defined by the last component of an email 
address.  Email addresses ending {.com .net .org} are here allocated to 
country of residence where known, otherwise to USAmerica; addresses ending 
{.edu .gov .us .mil} are all allocated to USAmerica. 
     
HES has subscribers in 32 countries (same as last quarter), with perhaps 
one or two more concealed in "USAmerica" {.com .net .org}.  Next after 
USAmerica with 207 subscribers (50%) is France with 25 (6%).

SUBSCRIBERS BY INSTITUTION  
  
"Institutions" are generally defined by one or two components of an email 
address preceding the last or "country".  Thus some institutions may be 
overlooked here, because of their addressing conventions or because some 
affiliated persons subscribe from an outside address.   
  
HES has four or more subscribers at a handful of institutions: 
 
    5   Erasmus U Rotterdam 
    5   U Amsterdam 
    5   Duke U  
    4   U Notre Dame  
    4   U Paris 1  
    4   Go"teborg U 
    4   U Quebec a Montreal 
 
(Six geographically scattered subscribers buy their email addresses from a 
commercial institution, America Online.) 
 
 
==== 
 
SUBSCRIBERS BY NAME 
 
HES has three subscribers hamed David Smith (David R, David K, and Dave). 
No other name is close. 
 
 
==== 
 
TECHNICAL NOTES  
   
 -  Each person is counted once, at current residence (or so I guess) for 
    those with subscriptions from two different countries.  
  
 -  "US America" counts all persons with addresses ending {.org .com .net 
    .edu .us .gov .mil} EXCEPT where I know that person is based 
    elsewhere, which depends on my memory, efforts, and good fortune.

    South Africa, not Israel or India.
