For your interest ... statistics from continuum's ${LIBDIR}/logfile ...

[quozl at continuum]$ grep Client logfile|wc

So since October 12th 1999 we've had 283,338 player logins, of which
5,227 were COW-lite.  About 2%.

[quozl at continuum]$ tail -10000 logfile|grep -i cow-lite|wc
     48     388    2510

And we seem to still get people using COW-lite.
Perhaps we should ask them.  Anybody know these players?
