Is anyone maintaining xymon anymore?

I would agree that it works as it stands but when people are finding
bugs and providing the answer to them but not making it to the
released copy for other people, that is what begins to concern me and
I am sure others.

Actually, I think Xymon has gotten so close to perfection that there is not
much left to do without making fundamental architectural changes, or taking
on huge tasks (like SNMP management).  PuTTY has not been updated in quite a
while, either, and I am quite happy with what it does.

I am sure we would all like more features, or a more zippy GUI (or a GUI for
admin), but you can make a lot of hay with Xymon as it sits right now.

If you search the archive you may find some notes from Henrik about futures,
but since he has a day job he probably is not able to work on Xymon as much
as he once did.

I would like to know where Xymon is going... It's a good product but its
not active enough from a development point of view..

Henrik I would not like to insult you or anyone else on this list but can
we have a definitive statement on the future of Xymon?

I am concerned as well.  The last email Henrik posted on this list was
Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 5:21 AM.  Exactly four months ago today.

Is anyone maintaining xymon currently?

Yes, in theory. These are people have write access to hobbit SVN tree.

Henrik is the project leader and doing most of the development work.

I have several bugs that I have patches for that I am sure is affecting
others.  I have posted them but nothing gets commited to SVN.

Thanks for the fix, I was able to confirm the "INCLUDE" bug, but I
haven't have a chance to verify your patch on my test servers. I am
hoping Henrik can make the commit happen after verification.

Also I just hack my way through knowing a little C but I don't know if
the patches are right.  I know they fix my issues but don't know if
they
cause other issues.

I am not confident to commit changes since I am still catching up
(reading)on C and network programming books.

The last few commits to SVN have been done to the branches and nothing
done to "trunk" in over a year.  Isn't trunk supposed to be the latest
devel area and "branches" are releases?

"trunk" is almost 200 commits behind branches which doesn't make a lot
of sense to me.

I see there are open bugs almost 5 years old so that doesn't look to be
used either.

So just curious if this project is still in development and if I could
be of help to get things fixed and maybe help get the SVN layout into
"best practice".

I hope Henrik can create you an S.F. hobbit developer account.
