My idea for that was to check this website: http://www.sagemath.org/version.html This should happen once a day or every few days, in parallel on startup because website might not work and hence delays startup time and should be opt-out in case you have reasons to not check this. Going through the webserver logs, this might additionally give us an idea how many users are out there. This would require an UID, like Firefox and many others do, too. They create a unique client ID number for each installation. That id would be stored in ~/.sage and appended to this request like verson.html?uid=hashcode H -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
