Question 1: Would anyone care if we kill the "loginCTA" campaign, which tracks when people use the link at the bottom of Special:UserLogin to get to the account creation page?
Question 2: Would anyone care if we remove the extension entirely from Wikimedia wikis? Wikiapiary seems to show only one user outside of Wikimedia.
Background: The extension needs a rewrite for AuthManager, and in particular the "loginCTA" campaign will be a bit of a pain to keep working. If someone is making use of the extension that's fine, but if not we may as well not continue to spend development resources on it.

Following up on this: Since the answer to Question 2 was yes, we've done the necessary update to Campaigns so it will continue working with AuthManager.[1] Since no one answered Question 1, the loginCTA campaign has been removed. It will stop showing up in 1.28.0-wmf.4, which rolls out this week.

Hey Brad,
That sounds fine to me.
We previously used the loginCTA campaign to measure the value of that secondary button on the login page ( ee-dashboard.wmflabs.org/graphs/enwiki_campaigns) but it doesn't need to happen on an ongoing basis.
