[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12432?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12724230#comment-12724230 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-12432:
------------------------------------

All that the tracker does, afaict, is hit a URL when a jar is downloaded, like a pingback. So we can track those 404'd requests and voom - download stats.

I've enabled this script to generate metadata for stat tracking here: 

http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbosstools/trunk/build/aggregate/build.xml

Hate to commit-and-run, but it should work as is and I can verify it tomorrow when we settle on which URLs to use.

Currently, it's hard coded to use https://devstudio.jboss.com/usage/juno/4.0.0.Beta1/ but we can parameterize that for JBT vs. JBDS and key in on the specific releases too.

> Sounds like OpenShift hosted collector plus some queries to a db could do alot on getting some better updatesite usage info!
