I don't see any real need for such tracking (who came, who did
something, when, where, etc) in a online translation platform, in order
to improve "…the desing…" of platform itself. But if that helps, I don't
mind being tracked.

It would be great to have Piwik provide language activity to GTEs or
language coordinators. As a coordinator I need to be notified of any
contribution for my locale, in order to promptly review the new
contributions. In a huge project, for a big team (19 formally registered
so far) this is really hard. Even harder if you take in account that
Fedora is not the only project you have to take care.
A simple email with the link of the project where contribute was made
will help GTEs to react much more quickly and effectively.

Besnik
