Hi there,
earlier today I enabled a Piwik tracking code on all pages of this forum, which will basically gather (anonymous) statistics about the users of this forum ( see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_analytics ).
I did this mainly because it was surprisingly easy to set up and because I love statistics. Furthermore it'll help me make certain decisions concerning the forum (or any other site that we might launch in future), such as which browser(s) to optimize for, or which countries most of our visitors come from.
The (anonymous) data is stored on a server I control, so no data will be leaked anywhere.
For people that are uncomfortable being included in any of this analysis:
I will probably post some interesting statistics generated by this system every once in a while.

For people that are uncomfortable being included in any of this analysis:
- The system will respect DNT headers sent by your browser
- You can easily block it with your anti-tracking tool of choice (e.g. Ghostery)
- I will set up a separate Opt-Out page soon
I will probably post some interesting statistics generated by this system every once in a while.

I'm quite busy, so unless it's a quick thing or really urgent I am unlikely to be able to answer PMs throughout the week, but I try to reach out to everyone who contacted me during the weekends. If it's urgent, you can also contact any of the supremes, they can do a lot of things or relay directly to me if necessary.
