Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Download stats for p2

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

doh. Of course. Thanks for the clarification
on 'feature'. 

One more question/recommendation ...


I think we should, by convention, add
the "repo uri" to the repo specific part? 

http://download.eclipse.org/stats</repo/uri>


so for example ... we'd have 

http://download.eclipse.org/stats/releases/helios


for the common repo ... but could use 

http://download.eclipse.org/stats/webtools/repository

for webtools specific artifact repositories. 

It would be the same amount of data coming back to eclipse.org,
but would help tell which 
repositories were in use ... in those cases where things
are available in multiple repos. 

Make sense? Any reason not to? 

Thanks again.

The "..feature.group" is in the metadata but is not an artifact
(something that is downloaded during install). There is an artifact containing
the feature.xml file that could be used though.  Feature artifacts
something like this: 

    <artifact classifier='org.eclipse.update.feature' id='org.eclipse.sdk'
version='...' 

 
The stats mechanism works the same on any artifact. So, you could use the
artifact for either a feature or plugin with the same effect.
