Alerts - the code is *almost* ready. It is based on the same principle as
what is used for distributing the history- and RRD-files across multiple
servers; the hobbitd_alert module runs on all of the servers - so it
keeps track of the repeat times etc - but it only actually sends the
alerts from one of the servers at any time.
This would be good news - our bb servers are limping along, held together with
 scotch tape, and we would love to move to hobbit. Only the lack of the
failover capacity of the sort implemented in bb is holding us back.

Please grant us a happy new year!
