Here's an old document I wrote a while ago about tracking usage by country. Probably it should go into the metrics documentation somewhere (if we do this), or get thrown into "old" (if we won't do this), or updated (if we might someday do this).
This proposal idea is already in the "old" directory, and I think that's okay. The idea is superseded by this tech report:

xxx-hide-platform.txt
Here's a proposal pre-draft that says we should normalize the platform string. Somebody could turn this into a proposal pretty easily.
This proposal idea doesn't say what platform string would be published when HidePlatform is set to Yes.
I think #2988 has much more discussion on this topic than the proposal idea. Whenever #2988 results in a design, it'd be just as simple to write a new proposal than to rewrite this one. Does such a change even require a proposal? Which specification document would be changed when making this change? It's probably okay to throw this proposal into "old," too.
