It's created dynamically by pulling a bunch of information from the 
bb-hosts file and the running Hobbit daemon.

Looking at it now, it seems I'll have to rework it slightly to make
it look nicer with all the info from the new client.

I try to do cool stuff :-)

Seriously, this report is something that was created for a specific
request I had at work. Some of the paper-pushers there insisted on
having a hard-copy print-out of what is being monitored by Hobbit as
part of the operational documentation (never mind that monitoring is
fairly dynamic and frequently changes after that documentation has
been produced ...) So this report was done so that I don't have to
collect that information by hand.

I've noted your suggestion that it would be nice to leave out parts
of the report - I think that is fairly easy to implement, so I'll have
a look at that.
