Subject: RE: [hobbit] Hobbit developer access.
This brings up a good point.. We use Xymon extensively at my company but
I'm worried about the lack of a long term outlook for the project.
Same here in regard of xymon deployment. But what I am worry about is that we still don't have a team of developers to develop xymon(hobbit). we(including me ;) are still relying solely on henrik's free development effort.
Is there a roadmap for Xymon?
If there is where are we on it? If there
is not should we as a community draw up one?
Can you put down what you like to see in this url ?
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Developer_Guide#Development_Road_Map
But put down wish lists is one thing, getting it done by others is another.
Not many xymon developers know C and xymon program architecture and also have free time to work on features in the roadmap.
Just wondering what people think.. I personally love xymon, but its
getting harder to sell it to management..

developers locked or did I miss something?
AFAIK, no. Henrik is probably just over-worked.
I am listed (to maintain the devmon collector module).
BTW, what are your plans for the xymon-addons project? I think I should
start
putting some of our extensions somewhere, and I would prefer something
with
VCS (which is why I haven't put anything on The Shire), and I think it
would
be beneficial to users if releases (e.g. tarballs) were made with
consistent
deployment methods for all extensions.
If you think it's a good idea, please add 'buchanmilne' as a developer
with
commit access to xymon-addons.
