[Toolserver-l] Stable server editcounter

[draicone at gmail.com]

I'm happy to do it in PHP, and should be able to implement the various
features here. I'd use simple URL-hash based filesystem caching (unless
memcache is an option? -- the scale of the edit counter might justify this).
A RESTful API would be the simplest option, with data output in XML and
possibly JSON/serialized PHP. We could have a couple of settings, e.g.
"Quick Count" (no namespaces or other statistics", "Summary" (namespaces)
and "Detailed" (count, namespaces, timeline, use of edit summaries etc.).

Presuming it's going to be widely used, we might as well plan it here --
anybody else have structural suggestions for the tool?
