AFAIR, using Google Analytics has been discouraged by the ASF board.
Ok, found the thread (and I confirm that thunderbird is a POS when
t comes
to search, compared to gmail).
I would not say that the ASF board discouraged the usage of GA,
there were
some mails echanged about the legal implication on the usage of GA :
"the Google
Terms and Conditions (Paragraph 7 on
http://www.google.com/analytics/tos.html) require all sites using
Google
Analytics to post a privacy policy:
--- cut ---
You will have and abide by an appropriate privacy policy and will
comply
with all applicable laws relating to the collection of information
from
visitors to Your websites. You must post a privacy policy and that
policy must provide notice of your use of a cookie that collects
anonymous traffic data.

"
So the bare minimum for us would be to post this policy on our web
site.
Now, if the board say "don't use it", we will remove it, of course.
Bernd, do you have any other mail I may have missed, suggesting
that they
prefer us not to use GA? (forward them to me privately, to preserve
their
privacy).
Thanks !
Ah, right. Now I remember fully. You phrased this correctly, project's
are advised to let their user's know.
Thank you for RTFBR, I should have checked the facts myself
beforehand,
Where do we publish our reports?
Regards,
Alan
