Title:
Allow certain registration information to be public
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Mahara instances can decide whether they want to register with the
Mahara project or not. Currently, the stats that are collected are
only visible to the Mahara core project team as we do not ask site
admins permission to make them available more widely to the community
like for example Moodle: http://moodle.net/stats/
We should be changing that with the next release and ask permission to
make certain information available anonymously to the entire
community. We shouldn't make all the information available that we
collect, but just the most high level ones like
- Geographical location of the registered site
- The site name and URL itself like on http://moodle.net/sites/
- Number of registered users
- Version of Mahara used (unless we decide it's a security risk)
- Number of pages created (could be beneficial to see how active users are on
the site; ideally excl. dashboards, profile pages and group homepages)
The information that is shared publicly anonymously with others should
be highlighted when you review what information is sent when
registering the site.
When we make that change, I think we should reset the registration
checkbox for sites that had it set to give them the chance to review
the setting and make a conscious decision about registering as it's
kinda like accepting new Terms and Conditions.
