Hi all!

I am very pleased to announce the 2.0 release of *SiteStats* for Sakai!

SiteStats allows authorized users to view site usage statistics related to
user visits, tool activity and resource activity. This version is available
for Sakai 2.6 and Sakai 2.5.

SiteStats 2.0 is major rewrite of previous version with several
optimizations, a new exciting ajax based UI with powerful reporting options
and enhanced tool support. This release incorporates over 70 bugfixes and
enhancements <http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/STAT/fixforversion/11273>!
