I agree with David. For example, many projects are now mirrored to github, and github has very good analytics:

Which makes both me and David happy. :) Julian On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 6:35 AM, David Nalley <da...@gnsa.us> wrote: > On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 7:28 AM, Sergio Fernández > <sergio.fernan...@salzburgresearch.at> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> one of the things I brought from ApacheCon is the idea if providing >> dashboard for the podlings.
