So you think that having book(s) will leave the number of the ConText
users on the same level or maybe decrease it?
i think it's hard to draw conclusions .. for instance if someone has to 
use tex once for a thesis he counts as user but will never use tex again 
probably

i've seen my share of tex users and am pretty convinced that many users 
on this list are non standard in the sense that they like to make their 
own look and feel (contrary to using say latex for a one shot document 
in a prescribed style) .. in that sense i think that the crowd here is 
not the majority of tex users but definitely using it in advanced ways 
... just look at mkiv ... i'm really pleased that so many use it already 
which helps us a lot with developing luatex as well
