The question we'd like to answer is how many history items are created per user per day, so that we can work out what N days of history represents in terms of total history items.

There's some existing data collection that happens at startup here [1], but we should consider if there's a better way to do this.

This will need data review as well. I'll work on that.

It was originally discussed that we should do the average on device, but I don't think that will work since we can't know how many entries we definitely got (like a new user could have 10 entries).

So we should do the averaging in the telemetry dashboard.

DATA COLLECTION REVIEW RESPONSE:

Is there or will there be documentation that describes the schema for the ultimate data set available publicly, complete and accurate?

Yes.

Is there a control mechanism that allows the user to turn the data collection on and off?

Yes. This collection can be controlled through Firefox's Preferences.

If the request is for permanent data collection, is there someone who will monitor the data over time?

Yes, Mike Kaply is responsible.

Using the category system of data types on the Mozilla wiki, what collection type of data do the requested measurements fall under?

Category 2, Interaction.

Is the data collection request for default-on or default-off?

Default on for all channels.

Does the instrumentation include the addition of any new identifiers?

No.

Is the data collection covered by the existing Firefox privacy notice?

Yes.

Does the data collection use a third-party collection tool?

No.
