On the subject of a roadmap/plan

Was there ever a plan to merge/integrate the source for Xymon and
Devmon, or did I dream it?
I think you dreamed it.  I am not able to use devmon because it doesn't
support snmp v3.  Devmon is written in perl and uses the SNMP_utils
libraries originally distributed with MRTG, while MRTG now also distributed
the Net_SNMP-utils libraries that do support snmp v3.  Henrik discussed snmp
support using the Net SNMP C libraries that would support snmp v3.
If there was ever such a plan, is it still on the cards?
If I did dream it, is it a possibility?
It would mean a complete rewrite for devmon to integrate it properly and
cleanly.
