Michele Mostarda commented on ANY23-202:
----------------------------------------
Hi guys, I used Google Analytics because as you can easily verify other Apache
projects already embed it within their landing pages (see for example
http://hadoop.apache.org/).
Any metrics provided by Tomcat is not comparable with the informations obtained
by Google Analytics like geographic distribution and disambiguation of accesses.
The tracker is embedded only in the demo front-end service page and anybody can
customize (change the tracking ID) or remove it.
Suggestions to make it less invasive:
we could perhaps add the tracking ID within the POM so that it is more visible
and left it empty in the distributions?
we could add a disclaimer in the README?
Suggestions?
In general I suggest to keep a way to fine track user activity because we need
to quantify the usage, the community and the distribution to better improve
support.
