Hi Mark One request we get from customers a lot is to have statistics of downloaded bitstreams be more meaningful. We currently provide them with Google analytics which shows what bitsreams have been downloaded, but these are often long urls that are difficut to decipher. What would be really good to see is a list of bitstreams with their dc.title crossreferenced showing what item they downloaded the bitstreams from.

So the data gathered should be completely anonymized. Cheers Claudia Mark H. Wood schrieb: > There has been some good discussion of ways, means, and end products, > mostly by developers.
