So the first question is really, how do we get buy-in from across the
project that the extra hassle is worth the value it brings Fedora to

What's the point of having the data? What are we intending to do with
it? What does it buy us?
You need to know that before you know if it's worth the hassle. It's
essentially navel-gazing sort of numbers, that may not have a *direct*
effect on any particular aspect of the project in the short term.
My goal was marketing. Showing community and multi vendor participation
in Fedora has a very direct effect on perceptions on how things evolved
in Fedora.
There are other benefits like Toshio said but this alone makes it worth
the effort IMO.
