[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBBUILD-686) Download statistics for the maven repository

[Geoffrey De Smet (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBBUILD-686?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Geoffrey De Smet updated JBBUILD-686:
-------------------------------------

    Description: 
Download statistics are an important requirement for project marketing.

Last year, Sonatype announced download statistics for OSS projects on the central repository:
  http://www.sonatype.com/people/2010/12/now-available-central-download-statistics-for-oss-projects/
The JBoss repository should also have this.

Even if a project (like drools or jbpm) is mirrored on central, only the originating repository (= the repository to which they were originally deployed) can show the download statistics (and the other repo's sync their info to it with a plugin).
