Yes thank, it is merged (I just change a path to be working again).

Initially Miguel idea was to split the demo system but perhaps it could 
more convenient to integrate in the main service. The split solution 
allows the possibility to start/stop the api web service without 
interruption for demo service (however cherrypy looks good to reload 
page without interruption) or to give priority by server access (but not 
sure that it is really a problem actually ;) ).

Yes it could be interesting to have live information from demo activity.

Agree and some stats can be interesting to be included in some demo pages.
If you want (and if all are ok) I can try to test to include it in the 
main demo system.

Cheers,
