[GRASS-dev] grass-dev Digest, Vol 80, Issue 74

[Yann Chemin]

Would it be possible to have modules usage statistics aggregated in GRASS
and periodically reported to a website for anonymous stats? Ubuntu asks you
to participate in such usage survey.

It would be opt-in only, but would certainly tell GRASS community which
modules are actually used most.

just a thought.
