Well yes, but I still think that whatever awstat does to get this count will be a very poor approximation to unique visitors. >>>> Why do you want this information anyway? >>> >>> Because the person/organisation that gave OSM-NL last year around 10K >>> in euro, and now gave 28K to OpenStreetPhoto would like to know the >>> unique visitors, and I think that is a reasonable question... >> >> Every question seems reasonable to the person asking it, but as always >> the question is where to draw the line - do I have to conjure up >> whatever statistics people ask for no matter how much work it needs? > > You are always talking about you are the only person capable of doing > something. I sincerely wonder why that is so? I'm not the only one, but of the people with access to the relevant server I'm the one most likely to do it if we do it from the slippy map logs. If we do it from the tile server logs then Jon would be more likely (though we both could do it from either machine). If what you're asking is why we don't just give anybody who asks root access to the web server then I hope that would answer itself. >> Anyway, if you can get the appropriate people to authorise it, and you >> can clarify exactly what you want, then we might be able to do >> something when we get a minute. > > And who might that be? Since when should I find authorisation for > questions? I'm not sure to be honest - the foundation I guess. I don't believe we have a policy on the release of statistical information like this at the moment.
