We are starting limitation of the new leaderboard system for Mozilla stumbler. There are three main requirements: - support smaller regionalized leaderboards (i.e. per-country, per-city, per-neighborhood) - support leaders based on blocks of time (week-by-week leaders) - use Firefox Accounts
Implementation-wise, the backend will store user observation counts in 500m grid cells, and per-week. The possible concern here is that the leaderboard is now tracking users more that it was previously. The opt-in for the leaderboards will have to indicate that Mozilla is storing this granularity of data, so users can make an informed decision about participation. I think the two main areas of concern will be privacy related, and future-feature related (i.e. will the leaderboards support all the different initiatives that have been suggested by the community). Feedback is welcome! _______________________________________________ dev-geolocation mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-geolocation
