[Qgis-psc] Blog article for QGIS Analytics dashboard

Dear Charles and Tim,

Thank you for working on this blog post. I had a quick look and have some
feedback:

Quote:
"The analytics dashboard is publicly available from the following URL:
analytics.qgis.com"

Question: is this correct link? It doesn't work for me - and if it is a "
qgis.com" link I would suggest to use a "qgis.org" link. qgis.org is our
main domain - and if the analytics runs on qgis.com instead of qgis.org -
this looks a bit like the "commercial part" of QGIS is now using this data
instead of the community itself ...

In general I think that the wording in the blog doesn't have to repeatedly
tell that we are not storing any user data. One mention of this enough - we
do not have to tell this multiple times. If someone has to repeat such
things multiple times, it almost looks a bit like there is something to
hide ... and something fishy going on.

Other than that it looks fine to me. Thanks a lot for your work on the
analytics dashboard and for writing the blog post!

Andreas
