I have created an application using wxpython that reports Hobbit/Big Brother

There are three main components:

It's still very alpha, but fully functional. Mainly I created this for our
NOC which is sometimes very busy and occasionally alerts get missed if
someone isn't eyeballing the web page constantly. The client can create
pop-up windows, play sound files, etc that some are already familiar with
from the old "bbtray" application.
Although it still needs a lot of work, I'd like to start distributing it for
people to try out and maybe offer suggestions or even assistance with. Is
"The Shire" ready for user distribution of projects yet?
What does the hobbit-alerts.cfg file look like for alerting on all events?
