 * Subj : Deleting old Linux Counter accounts
 =============================================================================
 The Linux Counter Project (http://counter.li.org/) is removing dead
 accounts on November 1:
 
 ==========
 Deleting old accounts
 ---------------------
 Over the 7 years that the Linux Counter has been operative, a lot of
 people have registered who can no longer be verified.
 
 We do not want to publish false data to the world. So we have to
 remove the data when it is too old, and have decided to give two grace
 periods:
  * Two years for entries with an email that might be valid
  * One year for entries without a valid email entry
 More technical details are available:
  * http://counter.li.org/organization/drop-people.php
 
 Since there has not been any routine for this before, there is a
 backlog of almost 100.000 entries. We have decided to pull the whole
 backlog at once on November 1.
 
 After this date, the aged-out entries will not be included in the
 Linux Counter user count, and will not receive email notifications
 from the counter.
 
 What you can do
 ---------------
 First: LOG IN!
 Any account logged into will not be removed (for another 2 years). If
 you don't have your registration number, just log in with your (old or
 new) email address. If you don't have the key, follow the prompts on
 the login page to get it mailed to you.
 
 Second: TELL OTHERS.
 Lots of people have registered and forgotten about it. Some of them
 even have their names out on the lists of users, but don't know
 it. (It is possible to be counted, but not shown in the lists. Privacy
 is important to us!)
 
 Lots of people might want to register, if they only knew it was
 possible - showing the world that the Linux community is growing is
 very important!
 
 Third, and if you feel you want to: JOIN IN!
 The Counter Project needs manpower - people willing to manage
 countries or contribute to the code base. Look at the organizational
 pages (http://counter.li.org/organization/) and decide how YOU want to
 contribute.
 
 Welcome back to the Linux Counter!
