Hi, I’m sort of new to WordPress, with less than a month experience I might add. I can honestly say I have NO idea what you guys were talking about
This post may be wayyyy too old, but how do I know if my site is recognised as WordPress? And the http://dinki.mine.nu/add_wordpress.php link doesn’t work.
You should try using some other heuristics, like the presence of a wp-* linked file like wp-rss2.php, etc.
http://www.technorati.com/cosm.....dpress.org might be a good place to start crawling from. How about the wpusers page on the wiki? I can give you some referrer stats from wordpress.org if you’re interested.
I really like the idea of crawling meta tags of the RSS file. The problem with technorati metadata is that it is reapeated too often. I want to follow the robots.txt crawling rules and the repeated access might annoy some people. I will modify the crawler (when I get a chance) so it seeks out the metatags from the wp-commentsrss2.php which is common across all the versions(except 0.7).
Most of the people listed on wp-users from the wiki are in the database. It looks like the people that really mess with WordPress and are involved in some way with the effort, do not remove their tags…LOL I keep seeing the numbers growing, which is a good sign.

BTW the RSS file is a better place to get the WP version than the meta tag.

The link doesn’t work. I am using WP, and I love it!
