| [soc-dev] [GSoC] Approved data collection weekly report |
Hi,
this is the weekly report or the GSoC project eclipse approved data collection [1]
Project short description: In order to understand how and for which reasons developers are using Eclipse, many Plug-ins want to collect some usage data. The main problem with any data collection technology is privacy, therefore plugins should ask for approval before collecting usage data. The goal of this project is to collect such user approval before sending the data to any external server. Any operation that uploads data must be “opt-in”.
New implemented features:
During the last week i have improved the documentation of the project (javadoc, how to contribute ...). Then i have added a new Wizard, which popup on the first activation of the Privacy framework. The Wizard will provide some help to users to better understand the purpose of the project. (screenshot are attached)
Last but not least, i have changed the user id preference page layout.
Tasks for the next week:
After finishing the Wizard implementation, i will start with the first show case for the privacy framework. The plug-in will send a HTTP request as soon as some registered plug-ins
got activated.
If you have any question or any description above is not clear enough, don’t hesitate to contact me.
Looking forward to receiving your comments and feedback,
Yasser.
