So, the good news on this point is that we're doing a relatively good
job of keeping people current -- the work we're doing on making
upgrades smooth seems to be paying off. A little shy of 47% of mirror
checkins come from F25 (with F26 beta and Rawhide contributing another
1.5%). F24 is 15%, and F23 is 12%.
F22 drops down to 6.2%, F21 is 4.3%, and F20 is 5.9%. (F20 looks like
it's going to linger for a good long time.)
This statistic is a bit different:

epel-7 41.1080 % 3803278
epel-6 27.9928 % 2589874
updates-released-f25 6.1853 % 572261
updates-released-f21 6.1011 % 564465
updates-released-f22 5.8795 % 543968
updates-released-f24 2.6841 % 248333
updates-released-f23 1.8801 % 173941
This says that f21 is more popular than f24.
