Right, to clarify, this proposal is for a public data set and API.

Jon, we chose to not include that information in order to limit the amount of data that we'd have to deal with.  If it gets too large, it won't fit into PostgreSQL.  For the iOS / Android and beta / alpha versions of the site we can either:

* Make a new cube that examines site versions and client information
* Just use the private data as we're already doing, but aggregate it hourly or daily as needed, to make analysis much faster.
