Tracking in new Google Docs

As of this date and sad short answer.... They stopped Google Analytics support in the new version Google Docs.

How we track our published Google Documents now!?
Believe they are developing another form of statistic viewing system for our Google Documents.

Really?
Yes really, I was researching my Google Analytics and found out my default website is no longer getting tracked.  Thought I'd best investigate, eventually stumbled upon Google staff reporting, that they are phasing out Google Analytics support in the new Google Docs version

Hi everyone - thanks for taking the time to post. We're phasing out Google Analytics support in our new editors, but we'll be working on alternatives to provide admins with more information about their doc's viewers. 
From this post!

Further note, at one you used to be able to edit the HTML and CSS.  You no longer can't in this current version of Google Docs.  Yet I truly believe they are working some form new alternative.

PS: I still like Google Docs :P
