How much users ?

Is interesting that we have more people in Pharo-Dev than in Pharo-Users, I thought it was the other way.

Any reason for that?

Cheers,
Alejandro

Another is that many of pharo users find it easy to contribute back to pharo because of the nature of the enviroment and the third , the community is just to small to have a sizable pharo-user list. Personally I am surprised that Pharo-dev has not much more.

thanks!
Around 500, it's still impressive.

I guess I can count a little bit less to have a number on Pharo devs, Pharo active community.

But it is difficult to put a real number on pharo users:

If we consider that all Pharo devs (or almost) are in the both lists, (And I guess this is not so false because my feeling is that Pharo devs tend to help new Pharo users) it means there is no Pharo user-only, or there is no Pharo user-only in the mailing list...

And at first I would have thought that begin to use Pharo, comes with applying to the mailing list (because there is not a lot of tutorials and documentations for any kind of Pharo applications all arround the net).
