I tried to setup a system with blank little tracer images in all html
pages of my guides, but then I got divorced and lost the log data. After
that, I removed the tracers from the source again because it might be nice
for your self-esteem as an author to know, but apart from that I didn't
think this was very important.
We looked into this a while ago and I believe we could have access to or a
copy of the iBiblio logs, but that does not tell us anything about the
mirrors. Hence the tracers, but I also got a bit of criticism for that
because it didn't say anywhere that access to the pages of the guides was
being monitored.
Tille.
