Please answer with your honest thoughts so we can gauge demand within the community for this tool. It's not that there's no demand. It's just that I won't trust anybody with those data. For instance, think of it as in what places can I find servers volnurable to advisory AST-200x-xxx?

Ok guys I'm only going to leave this survey up for a few more days; Click this link and answer what you think - it's only 4 questions and will take you less than 30 seconds to answer. http://www.questionpro.com/akira/TakeSurvey?id=954613 Lets support the Asterisk community and get an honest opinion on what people think about anonymous statistics.

Please answer with your honest thoughts so we can gauge demand within the community for this tool. If people respond to this survey and show interest in sharing their information with the community then something we'll put together a working group to establish design parameters etc but for the moment just go here and vote if you think this is a good idea or not http://www.questionpro.com/akira/TakeSurvey?id=954613 Remember this Asterisk community analytics tool will only collect anonymous information. Potential analytics may include - eg. How many ip handsets does your Asterisk server have connected, but it will never collect their IP addresses or personal information/passwords etc. You will be able to see what information is being collected in a text file before it uploads and will be able to control all stats it collects.
