Although I am interested in the statistics, I don't have the spare resources to set up and maintain these scripts. I read the mail thread Marshall pointed to. It seems to me that the decision is largely left to the PMCs with the condition of adding the privacy notice. Several projects appear to be already using GA. According to the comments in the thread, GA is also functionally superior to these scripts (I would have been surprised if it had been otherwise).
My suggestion would be to see if there are any further comments and then call for a vote.
