Ok guys I’m only going to leave this survey up for a few more days;


Click this link and answer what you think – it’s only 4 questions and will take you less than 30 seconds to answer.

Lets support the Asterisk community and get an honest opinion on what people think about anonymous statistics.

I think it would be great for someone to write a small ‘anonymous collection module’ that an Asterisk sys-admin could download and install on their asterisk server which uploaded the stats to a community website where the data was anonymous but still valuable for the community.

Even if it just collected number of new installations globally this would be a huge help to people selling asterisk to their customers who continually ask “I’ve heard about this Asterisk open source stuff but how many are there installed globally anyway?”

So this survey is to gauge the community’s reaction to the development of an analytics tool like this. Please answer with your honest thoughts so we can gauge demand within the community for this tool.

If people respond to this survey and show interest in sharing their information with the community then something we’ll put together a working group to establish design parameters etc but for the moment just go here and vote if you think this is a good idea or not

Remember this Asterisk community analytics tool will only collect anonymous information.

Potential analytics may include - eg. How many ip handsets does your Asterisk server have connected, but it will never collect their IP addresses or personal information/passwords etc. You will be able to see what information is being collected in a text file before it uploads and will be able to control all stats it collects.



Cheers,
Dean

If you want an honest opinion... Wink

Anonymous statistics take bandwidth and resources, not to mention
may be a security risk (you never know how people may use sniffed
data!). If you add a statistics module to *, please make sure there
is an easy way to TURN IT OFF... Razz

What would be the benefit of having it on, anyway?

Thanks!

I think it would be great for someone to write a small
'anonymous collection module' that an Asterisk
sys-admin could download
and install on their asterisk server which uploaded the
stats to a
community website where the data was anonymous but still
valuable for
the community.



Even if it just collected number of new installations
globally
this would be a huge help to people selling asterisk to
their customers
who continually ask "I've heard about this
Asterisk open source stuff
but how many are there installed globally anyway?"

for this
tool.
