Mozilla Foundation will start to use CiviCRM within the next few months to provide metrics for our donations. The Foundation may also benefit from a system implemented by an internal metrics tool. Additionally, it may be helpful to do a comparison of the two methods of data collecting to see what CiviCRM finds and what is mined through Metrics' data since both use information from the PayPal feed/access. One proposal is to use the data retrieval API to query and thread information from the PayPal system by authenticating and retrieving account totals.
