[libreoffice-design] Collecting usage data

Hi,

At the Hangout today, I told that I hacked up a way in LibreOffice how
to collect usage data.  It's an early prototype, even to turn it on, you
have to compile; but I (or Samuel, if he can find some time?) plan to do
a user configuration to turn it on/off, and save it to the user's
profile.  If the time permits, even sending to some server might be
possible at some stage (but cannot promise that).

The output so far looks like this:

Usage information:
TextDocument;.uno:Bold;6
TextDocument;.uno:InsertTable(Columns,Rows);1
TextDocument;.uno:Italic;2
TextDocument;.uno:Quit;1
TextDocument;.uno:StyleApply(Template,Family);1
TextDocument;.uno:SwBackspace;1
Usage information end

This means that all the actions happened in Writer (TextDocument), and
the user has 6x switched Bold, inserted one table, 2x italics, has quit
LibreOffice once, 1x applied style, and once used backspace :-)

Ideas to include:

* LibreOffice version
* operating system
* user's locale
* screen resolution
* number of sessions started [this, minus the number of 'Quit's can give
  the number of crashes ;-)]

Anything else?  Cannot promise I can do everything, though ;-)

All the best,
Kendy
