Can you suggest a good user-agent scrubber? Many user-agents strings have various degrees of private/semi-private data stuffed into them. I've looked at publishing user-agent stats for Wikimedia site before, but realized that I don't have enough knowledge to safely canonicize them without throwing out a ton of information. (I.e. I could break down IE vs Firefox vs Opera vs Safari; but if you want to know about less common user agents I'm not quite sure what information can be safely released) _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
