I&#39;m assuming that you would not want to&#xA;&gt; build any of that processing into Bitcoin Core itself; would you be opposed&#xA;&gt; to packaging other software along with the installer?&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Depends on just how much stuff it is. The idea is primarily to have an&#xA;&gt; installer for running a (wallet-less) node as an OS background&#xA;&gt; service.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; Having some statistics available would be worth some extra download&#xA;&gt; size, otherwise it would be pretty much invisible.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; We&#39;d already decided that we would need something like Python for the&#xA;&gt; stats service. Implementing things like web services in C++ is just&#xA;&gt; not realistic given the time constraints and the great already-written&#xA;&gt; code that is out there. As an optional tool it should be external, not&#xA;&gt; part of bitcoind itself.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; I suppose the chart rendering happens client-side? In that case the&#xA;&gt; web service just has to collect and provide the data, and serve static&#xA;&gt; html/js files.&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&#xA;Is SNMP an option? That way you do not need to implement clients and there&#xA;are many tools written.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;&gt; Wladimir&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt;&#xA;&gt; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------&#xA;&gt; Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?
