Muchas gracias, Dario :)

Can you clarify what you mean by ‘directed graph visualization’, to make sure 
we’re on the same page?

It seems like the bar graph recommended by Dan would be a good start, but we 
might also consider another simple line graph to see how these patterns change 
over time.

I added your suggestions and links into a Notes section for the funnel 
dashboard ticket #541, though I will most likely be split into a couple smaller 
tickets, like #305.

We’re hoping to have some of this data next week, in time for our Upload Wizard 
planning meeting on Thursday — wish us luck :)

Onward!


Fabrice
