We're often asked for better data on who is using Koha. For full disclosure listings, there are good places (like wiki.koha-community.org, when account registration works again) and so-so places (like libwebcats with its incomplete representation of library-support relationships and potential for helping Social Engineering attacks), but what about collecting basic usage data? A side-effect of the use of debian packages is that koha appears on http://popcon.debian.org/ (14 installations) and http://popcon.ubuntu.com/ (3 installations). Do other distributions have similar things? Have many koha package users installed and activated the popularity-contest package? Can we get more data consensually? How should we do this? A question in the web installer/upgrader? Plus a weekly heartbeat cronjob? What data should we ask for? Can we leave it up to libraries how anonymous they will be? Basic return is "Koha in use" with some generated unique identifier, semi-anonymous response adds which country they are in and how many branches they have, full response includes catalogue name? I assume this can go in 3.6. Would the 3.4 RM accept it?
