I've been wondering recently if the forum stats on the tracker (no, not your personal stats/charts!) should be viewable to all, registered or not? Perhaps without the ability to filter the stats (and a message saying they need to register to access that feature).
I think it might help encourage more people to try this way of eating if they can see the figures without committing first of all to using the forum & tracker.
It would also give us the opportunity to try to get a link on the Wikipedia 5:2 diet page as the charts would be seen as a reference of information and not as an irrelevant link.
(I did try to get a link on the Wiki page previously but we were booted off for 'spamming' a site which includes adverts - yet the official site, covered in ads for the book was permitted for quite some time!)
What do folks think to making this data public? It's nothing personally identifiable and is covered by the clause at the bottom of the site if anyone wants to use the data elsewhere. Who knows, it may even get us a bit of news coverage!
