Fedora counter
Hi everybody!
Is there something like Fedora Counter where you can register and thus become a Registered Fedora User? (Like the Linux Count project, or the counter of another popular distribution) I have been Googleing it for a while and searching threads about it in this forum as well but could not find out anything on the subject.
I have installed Fedora 8 some days ago and it has been working well for me since than, so I am planning to go on using it, and it would be nice to "officially" increase the number of Fedora users.
(Sorry for opening a topic for this question, but I could not find any suitable.)

Yes, Smolt, and each time you update your system it gets counted!

Don't be! It's a valid question, and you've just gotten an excellent answer! <.. ..>

Thank you guys! I think it would have taken me some time to find this tool alone. However I do not understand quite well what you have to do to get a user ID: just install smolt client? And for doing that, on this page: https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/smolt/ I found a command that seems quite strange:
'yum install Fedora'
why is it not something like
'yum install smolt'
?

Smolt is already part of your Fedora installation , you may want to check out http://smolts.org/static/stats/stats.html
All you have to do is run /sbin/smoltSendProfile and see your UUID, if you sent your profile when installing Fedora, you'll see your system's "profile page".

Ok, thanks to you guys, I have just run it now and got registered.  However it is not in the /sbin but in the /usr/bin (at least on my machine)

Indeed... I was missing the /usr.
