Analytics
Hey dev@,
would anybody here mind if we'd put google analytics on
couchdb.apache.org and make public the stats? If not,
I'll set it up.
Cheers
Jan

I actually started on an analytics couchapp after asking the question
yesterday. I wanted to see if I could make it work similarly to Google
Analytics or Woopra (real-time analytics, pretty cool), and only as a
pure couchapp.
So far I had to add an external handler because there's no way to have
a jsonp request add docs to the database.

I did write once quite some time ago [1]. A bit outdated and I don't know if it runs on 0.11 out of the box... It contains a python script for importing apache logfiles and extracting extra information like browsers and bots...

Well, I think that qualifies as enough answer's to my "why".
Too bad nobody's written an analytics couchapp yet, I suppose...

We could run it in the Solaris Zone we are entitled to, but I don't think
anyone wants to set up and maintain this.

+1 on GA.
But I'm curious if we can use something like vgritsenko's technique to get a rough idea of our historical traffic. Anyone know how long they keep log files around for?

I pinged the infrastructure guys. They said that there are projects
using Google Analytics. The only other thing was that vgritsenko doing
log file analysis [1].
And Noah is right. Commandeering a node to host analytics stuff isn't
really a viable solution.

Nah, it's not as good.
It also requires us to set it up on the ASF infrastructure, which ain't gonna happen.

I wouldn't want to maintain the infrastructure.

I'd have to vouch for Google Analytics as well. Even though I
understand the need to seek for open source software, Google Analytics
is free, does not require any work (maintenance, setup, keeping
updated) and works straight off the bat... and it works well.
+1 for GA
