Actually, that is what I had hoped Xymonton would become.  The one place
people knew to go for all things Xymon which is why I used a wiki based
solution (deadcat was script-centric).  Alas, it seems it has become just
another Xymon site.


On a side note, I was hoping Xymon 5 would have been released by now.
IIRC, SNMP was going to be integrated into it and deprecate the need for
devmon.  It was also going to have a more themeable UI (again IIRC).  I had
actually started working towards that but transitioned to a new job so
haven't had time to get back on it.

down,  I'd hate to see it disappear like deadcat, though.  I've often
considered pulling all the known Xymon content onto it (there are
several sites) just to have one place for all the 3rd party bits to
live.  I'll admit it could use some love but it is still being used,
While I no longer use Xymon (new job can't use it), it does still hold a
special place in my heart (been using Big Bro/Hobbit/Xymon since 1998
when it was "better than free").
It's not that I wanted you to take the site down, it's just that's not
obviously to me that your site was the place to host community driven
xymon content.


I have the same 'problem' with devmon.
There are different sources where you can find devmon.
I forked my own version because I integrated SNMP v3 and couldn't find
the most up-to-date base to start from.


Maybe we should reinvent xymon and merge all available information
(xymon, Devmon, scripts, ...) in 1 place?
Make the xymon website more 'flashy'?
Make a wiki like section where users we can post scripts and other
information?
Make a forum were people can ask questions and/or posts scripts?
