[sakai2-tcc] Counting Tools

Correct, since every tool stores content differently. Unless an event was fired on access of every tool that you could crossmatch and search for, but is accessing a tool 'using' a tool? Or is creating content in the tool using the tool?

You could use the capabilities in sitestats to create a report perhaps, since many people truncate their event tables, though that requires more effort on the institution's part. The SQL that John posted is an expanded version of the SQL I posted and should give a decent indication of tool availability.

cheers,
Steve

We thought it would be a good idea to give institutions an option to run a query instead, and send us the data for review. Each participating institution has the option to fill out the survey, or run a query we provide and send us the data, or both.

I think we don't need to parse out the Resources events, since it's a given that this is a core tool. The events counts would have to be parsed to provide counts by tools. I could probably write a quick perl script to do this if we think this would be useful.
