[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-6376) Usage tracking of JBoss tools

Usage tracking of JBoss tools ----------------------------- Key: JBIDE-6376 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-6376 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: core Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen Assignee: Andre Dietisheim Priority: Critical Fix For: 3.2.0.M2 Attachments: GoogleAnalyticsAndroid_0.7.zip We would like to know how many actually use jboss tools. We got some data from eclipse update sites but they are unreliable. Better if we could do a simple ping to a server to track when eclipse is started with JBoss Tools. Default will be on, but should be easy to disable. Default should not track more than what a visit to a webpage tracks. Suggestion is to use Google Analytics to track it. jgoogleanalytics could be a good basis for this. http://code.google.com/p/jgoogleanalytics/ Other requirements: Should not ping more than once a day (per workspace or per eclipse instance ?, per workspace I would say) Should be done asynchronosuly to not have any UI delays Should have some way to anonymously track users so we don't skew the usage data
