Not everyone can code in go, especially if their job is as a sysadmin, which isn&amp;#x27;t unlikely given that this is an infrastructure tool, so it might not be as simple as forking and editing the code for them.</text><parent_chain><item><author>hbbio</author><text>Project creator here (but obviously not the OP).&lt;p&gt;Yes, we do collect minimal anonymised statistics in the sole goal of improving awless.
