Hellor Xymon Lovers
I'm not a coder either, but I see there's quite a bit of brains out
there (and I think if there are enough of us we can try to maintain
and improve it).
Perhaps the current officials could first tell us what their plans
are and how we could help them.
On our side, we can perhaps encourage them: it would be good to list
what we can bring to the project, as some have done!
- I try to maintain "devmon" (on the github repo) and some other
xymon tool (I did try to understand how devmon is integrate to
xymon, but I am not an expert in Xymon code)
- I am a telecom engineer
- I can give some some time
- I am an independent and I have some infra to play with
- Usually I speak swiss-french (so sorry for all my mistakes)

I would be OK with contributing some as well?. But that?s not
what Xymon needs. Xymon needs caretaker(s) to keep it relevant.
That means code updates to fix bugs, adapt it to new OS versions,
etc. Otherwise it will fade away to obscurity like many other open
source projects. I?m not a coder either, or I would gladly give
some time to it.

I would like to continue the legacy. I'm not a developer but I'm
willing to pay for hosting space and the domain name to keep it
going for as long as I'm alive. Its kept me employed for a long
time.

I've been using Xymon at several different employers since it was
BigBrother owned by a couple of guys in Canada. My current Senior
VP wants Xymon to go away. He hasn't actually told me that
directly, but I've heard it via another channel. We have SolarWinds
on some machines, but I've never even seen the GUI for that. We're
also distributing Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) to a bunch of
machines. I don't know for sure, but I suspect a contracting
company is whispering in my SVP's ear to sell support for OEM. In
the meantime, my Xymon server has 878 days uptime and they're still
trying to figure out how to install and configure the OEM agents.
It's going to be tons of fun watching them try to replace all the
little scripts I've written with OEM equivalents.
@Cristoph - I don't know if I can use stunnel. It's a
military-related company and there are all kinds of restrictions
that sometimes even make sense.

No new release since 2019, no activity on the mailing list, I think
it?s safe to say it?s flatlined. Sad to see it fade, I?ve
been using it for a decade or more.

Is Xymon dying? No new release since 2019, There was a roadmap in
2015 that mention Versions 4.4 up to 5 but nothing seems to have
moved on that.
It feels like Xymon has become a static project that?s going to
fade away. That would be a shame as I for one think it?s a great
tool.
