in bug 667055, I would like to stop putting rpms in the latest-$branch directories on ftp.  Before I do that, i'd like to make sure that not too many people are actively using these files.

the pattern matching these files should be 
      /pub/firefox/nightly/latest-.*/.*[.]rpm

Ideally, this number would be very low (<100), but if it isn't, it'd be great to have it broken down by branch.

dumitru: are we tracking download stats for each file for ftp?

if these aren't stats that aren't already available or really easy to get, its OK with me to WONTFIX this bug.

John,
IT doesn't have any stats for the files that get accessed via ftp.m.o. I wanted to punt this bug over to metrics: they have access to the access logs and can generate the desired reports.
Let me know if you still need this, otherwise resolve the bug with WONTFIX :)
Thanks!

I think the costs here significantly outweigh the benefits
