I don't think we will be able to use JavaScript to be able to catch all the
downloads (or even a large portion of them). Since most of the downloads
come from the Installer, we can't depend on people hitting them with
JavaScript. Still looking at other ways to see what we can do. I don't

I was thinking about this. I wanted to have a hidden html component in the
Installer that would call a special page which simply calls the js function
on load. This page would be called only from the Installer.
Or, we could have the installer call the functions manually as well. This

I'm on IRC with infa right now. probing them to see what their thoughts
are. I did get logging turned on for the cgi a few months ago, but it is
combined with every other http request we have. We would need to sync up a
bunch of log files and parse them manually.

Couldn't the installer use URLLoader or Loader to access some URL on the
server, triggering a page hit?

So, pretty much we have two options :
- Add javascript to all the download links to send tracking data to
Google. Also, add additional code to do google tracking within the SDK
installer. That would require a new release of the installer, but
shouldn't be a big deal to do.

We can use the same tracking code that the OO came up with for those
download links. Do you want to work on making the changes needed for the
SDK installer? I would use this framework :

Agreed.
That's why I've been trying to get anonymous statistics -- ones that can't
be tied back to an individual (like Google), but without the ability to
write anything to disk locally, we are pretty much stuck. All I really
want is a download count, and could really care less about the rest (we

Yes, and it also hits the mirror CGI script that we have setup. One of the
options we talked about was just parsing the web server logs for those
files -- the problem is we would have to grab ~6GB worth of logs a day in
order to parse just for those files... And the processing time along with
it.
How are we tracking the other stuff? Something about running JS? What does
that JS do that the CGI script or a redirect can't do?

Write to google analytics. The ga js scripts do that for us.

We are tracking via Google Analytics for the rest of the website. It

include JavaScript in the CGI scripts that determine the site mirror to

I'm thinking up a scheme that we can use to track these things.
If you want to start to build in the SWC that they provided (can we,
licensing wise?). We will need to provide a checkbox that opts the user
out (which when unchecked, will simply not have the GA call made).

We need a SWC? Installer and badge installer run AIR, don't they? Could we
just use HTMLLoader to hit a page on our site?

I've checked in the changes to the installer that would let us track a
successful installation. The page
flex.apache.org/track-installer.htmlwould be loaded when the
installation finishes successfully. This change
should go out with the installer's next release.
If this does not work the way we
