add "counter" to UIMA website download page to count downloads
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-707
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-707
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Website
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
Although users may repackage UIMA and redistribute it, making counters not
accurate, it's better than having no idea at all. This task is to make the
action of clicking to do a download on our download page as accurate as
feasible. Would be nice to count individual kinds / versions of downloads.
Vadim Gritsenko runs tooling that extracts data from web server logs [1] and
publishes these online [2]. But he doesn't do this for incubator projects -
because he doesn't see a good reason to do so. I've asked him to do it and he
says he won't, until we become a top level project.

Google provides a service for this: it claims to also measure paths from
search engines (not just theirs) to your site, how people navigate thru the
site, etc.
