Here, we mis-use the "notes" channel to build inventory for hosts not
yet monitored (we had to use the same ip/port as hobbit, because it's
the only thing we can garantee is open on the firewalls). I adapted the
"hobbitd_filestore" so it dumps the data, processed later by a database
feeder. We don't need the notes channel because every status page has a
link to a wiki page, used as a quick-n-dirty reference, aka knowlegde
database". I consider adding "user1" and "user2" channels to hobbit, but
at the time it works without further patching.
