More background info:

Currently, login time is only saved in griduser table fro local users. That 
makes the calculation of total monthly users impossible. Though this number is 
really interesting to mesure grid activity in an hypergrid context.

First idea was to patch OpenSim and fill the Login field for HG visitors as 
well. But this would have affected a couple of other things, including the 
current "local active users" which is a de facto standard.
Another idea would be to add a separate checkin field to griduser. This could 
be done if it is considered as interesting for most.
