Hi Guillaume, I understand your disappointment but: * By default stats are off because they're not good enough and are too-performance intensive * Most users don't use them * The UI for the stats app is suboptimal ATM * We're removing more and more apps from the default XE since we now have the EM and I don't think the stats app is a must have for all wikis. * Using google analytics or some other web server stats tools usually provide better information than we do
The stats app will stil be supported by the xwiki dev team and we'll still work on improving it. I'm not suggesting to retire it. We can bring it back in some flavors in the future. We can also VOTE to move it back by default when we fix the performance + UI issue (it's a one line to change to have it in by default or not).
