Hi guys

Was there a decision made regarding a separate hobbit developer list?
One of my colleagues is interested in getting involved.

Also, I remember there being mention of customisable look and feel, and possibly local skins.
Are there any plans to head in that direction?

Cheers
    Vernon

I would like to try and look at writing a new frontend in Catalyst (perl), but it will most likely need some new features in Hobbit.

Additionally, some features I would like to add to Devmon may also require changes in Hobbit.

Since I don't think this list is appropriate to my development questions, I am also waiting for a -devel list ...

Buchan

Did these questions ever get answered?

 
Also, I thought I saw in some documentation somewhere that there may be
plans to allow web based configuration.  Is that something that is in
place, or being worked on?  If not, I might be interested in taking that
on if anyone is interested...

See http://www.trantor.org/theshire/doku.php/addons Hobbit Admin Tools
I never got these to work cleanly on my suns.
Also I hav bb-host.cgi from somewhere that lets to edit the bb-hosts file.
Lastly Ive mention (ask?) that it shouldn't  be too hard to add a drop test to enable/disable page.

Yes, Henrik said he will create a developer list.

The problem of hobbit development is that WE(including me ;) still rely on Henrik to do the development.
I think it is time more more people to join the development. Since now we have moved project to sourceforge.

For Web admin GUI, we have many options,
1.  I think you mentioned catalyst(perl based) tool.
2. webmin is also perl based, bb already has a webmin module.
3. Trac admin plug-in (python) is my favorite. I like to see hobbit is another tab on the Trac UI.
    and integrate with Trac's ticket system.

I hope one day we can be as strong as samba  project that even have buildbot farm  to build the code once there  a new svn checkin.

I'll use this as an excuse to see how the Sourceforge mailing lists
are working. So "user-f970bfd1395f@xymon.invalid" has been
created now, and should be available to all of you within a day
(that's what the SF website tells me).


Regards,
Henrik
