Hi I think that if put in the right 'shape' and on volunteer basis it can work pretty well. Maybe a filter is bit intrusive ... But eclipse for example does the same, still people use it. In a similar way all the softwares (especially when they fail) have a way to call home.
Something like a donate button, where you give some aggregated infos about how you use tapestry and not what you use it for.

I do not think this is just about curiosity; this is about (real) numbers on the actual impact of tapestry, its geographical distribution, and in a more general way also improvement (not just bug fixes) > There would have to be value-add for the end user, such as > checking for a newer version, etc. In fact there will. More visibility means more people involved, more people involved means more interest, effort and investments. Thus if you already are a kind of tapestry guru then your market value will increase. Then more data means more focused analyses and tests, and in the end a better framework. > > Is there precedent for this in other Apache projects? > > > On Mon, Oct 11, 2010 at 12:49 PM, Howard Lewis Ship <hls...@gmail.com> wrote: >> This came up during my training class this week. >> >> What would be the repercussions if Tapestry included a start-up filter >> that "reported" the application startup back to some central location, >> so that we could get some idea of where and how Tapestry is being >> used?
