I'll take the concerns side of things. In no particular order (the numbers are there to help clarify discussions):

Hi Michelle,
Here is what I am thinking for collecting analytics, with an opt out and information for users who do not wish to participate.
As the statusboard is potentially getting more traffic, we might consider configuring an analytics platform such as Google. This decision can also extend to the brigade project index main page or final product as well.
That being said there are some considerations in adding 3rd party tracking. The goal of this issue / discussion is to understand the trade-offs, voice the concerns, and come to a group decision.
Reasons for Google Analytics:
Effort to do non-Google analytics information is both time-consuming, potentially not free, and quite likely less informative
Concerns
Compromise solutions:
Please add your concerns / considerations on the trade-off!
