One of the things I thought of having MySQL/Drizzle "phone home" do is report the Smolt UUID, so then it wouldnt have to report back all the stuff that smolt does.

That would be useful only for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS machines tho...

Hi!

One of things we have thought about doing for years is a phone home project. Namely... have the database, via opt-in, report back some usage information. This would be for telling us what sort of hardware we are being run on, engines used, etc...

What do people think about this?

A few first order rules ->
1) All reporting information is completely public.
2) We are opt-in, you have turn this on for it transmit information

What sorts of information would people be ok to share/want to see?

Here is an example of what the Fedora project does with its phone home data:
