napsáno: Hi,
I'm working on Popcorn[1] for openSUSE this summer. Popcorn will gather statistics determining popular packages in openSUSE, and later for other distributions as well.
Interesting. I see two possible places (there are probably more) where we could ask user for permission to send their data
- during installation process, at some place in the workflow, there could be a checkbox (similar to that Debian one). That way most users would see it and could react. However, there are too many options in installation already, and we'd be adding new...
- it could be "hidden" in some of the configuration menus of YaST software management module. This would be more relevant place for gathering packages data, but users would not see it unless they'd specifically look for it.

Solution that is quite nice I see on Ubuntu. You start installation ( or disk partitioning ) and during slide show you can configure system ( so we can ask during installaling packages if user want to send such data ). Advantage is that it is not slow down of operation and it is really optional.
