Hello Dave! You are welcome to do this!
Since the tracker code is in the project_tools.html (to appear on every page), let me suggest that you make a copy of the main page in another one of the projects i.e. you put your copy of the main page in one of the other projects. Perhaps you have already thought of this. I suggest the argouml-gen project since it doesn't have any Google analytics code. Once you have the copy of the main page working there you can update the argouml-stats project. This is interesting because it contains links to pdf files that work in the same way as the links to the downloads (example http://argouml-stats.tigris.org/svn/argouml-stats/trunk/www/documentation/index.html) but I consider it less important than the argouml-downloads project. The argouml-downloads project will need update of all index files in all releases (or at least the releases where this is enabled (since 0.22)). There is now a script somewhere that goes through most project_tools.html files and recreate them according to a template. When you are about to update the tracking for all projects (ada, csharp, cpp, ..., es, de, pt, ru, ...), update and use the script to automate that tedious work. Shall we add Analytics to the Users' wiki and Forum too? If so, shall we use the same Analytics project or another one? /Linus 2009/3/27 Dave Thompson <[email protected]> > > From: Linus Tolke > > Date 2009-03-15 01:02:56 PDT > ... > > The reason that there are two links for every download is because of the > way > > the Google analytics work.
