[hobbit] Estimate for 4.2 release?

The March timeframe works great for me. I have a bunch of new servers going into production in May and that will give a month or more to work out any issues with 4.2

Thanks again for all the work.  A tool like hobbit makes our jobs much easier and makes us look like we know what we are doing!

It's mostly frozen by now.

My intention is to get log-file monitoring into the 4.2 release,
so that the client side functionality is complete (or at least on
level with the BB client). It would be nice to celebrate Hobbit's
1 year anniversary with a release including this.

There will also be the new "Critical systems" view which is in
the current snapshots.

You can set DOWNTIME for individual tests, not just the whole
server. This is already in the snapshots as well.

Plus the bugs that have been reported must be looked at, so 
I think that will keep me busy.

Henrik
