About
I think it would be good for the community to have some idea of the install base for applications. So I wrote a very quick and dirty way for people to submit their installed package list.

wget http://www.timwise.co.uk/om/pop/pop.tar.gz tar -C / -xzvf pop.tar.gz
submitting your package list
then submit your package list with
/usr/bin/pop
