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) Bruno
