I think it might be a good time to revisit the numbers from this post about the growth rate of the Drupal project. In a little more than 6 months Drupal has added more than 20 thousand members:

38861 users on November 9th, 2005
62365 users (and counting) Today

In pure numerical terms, users are jumping on board in greater numbers than before, although the huge growth rate has come down from the past.

Anyone want to break down the numbers further? I think it would be interesting to see a graph of growth, along with the release of 4.7 and the recent summer of code announcement etc... I'm just not the person to do this right now :)

Avoid hype, avoid backlash, get on with stuff. We, (Drupal, er, you know what I mean) want people on board when it's right for them, not just because it's the latest next big thing.
