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.

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.
