left off - are there no developers on this list?  I did some work (XML
output) on analog myself about three years ago, but right now I just
haven't got the time to get involved.

Web server log analysis is a fairly mature field at this point. AWStats, <http://www.awstats.org/>, another popular open source log analyzer, has had more recent development effort than Analog. But even they are running out of features to add and have dramatically slowed their development efforts.

I wonder how much of their development is just patching security holes....
(I had installed AWStats for a user, and then found that it got used to install a spam sender on my server. :/ )

The same is true of the commercial products. There hasn't been much innovation since ClickTracks came out several years ago.

What's that?

These days changes are mostly limited to making sure that the occasional new web browser has their agent string properly parsed.

Hmm... anyone seen iPhone's Safari show up in Analog yet?

As far as Analog development goes, I'd sure like to see the form output's HTML raised from HTML 2.0 to 4.0, to use CSS formatting on the report.
