[asterisk-users] Anonymous statistics collection tool for Asterisk servers?

[Dean Collins]

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
