new users v. new emails

[Annie Elliott]

Hi all -

I am looking at the JSON payload for the KPI backend and trying to
figure out how I would differentiate between some one who has no
existing browserID entry, and one who has one, but is adding a new email
to their persona "pool".

I suspect that I probably cannot count on the new_account field to do
this judging by the documentation.

Just going from the payload, what would the following look like:

A) a set of hands at a keyboard, who has never used browserid before and
is signing up
B) a previous browserid user who is adding a persona to their pool

I am very concerned that we have a means to flag true growth, which is
A) above; B) is engagement.

Also, is there a canonical reference/documentation/specific place in the
codebase (with comments ;) that I should be looking for an enumerated
list of the interesting events for the events stream?

thank you!
-Annie

FYI Annie and I will be chatting on the phone and will post any followups to this thread (bug numbers, etc).

Nathan is starting next Monday and he will be focused on creating the KPI Dashboard visualizations.
