To me, this is informational message.

So looks like you guys came to conclusion of selecting Hobbit by 
discussions, correct ?
Is there a requirement analysis document that can be shared ?

I really like to see how Hobbit compare to Tivoli,CA .. enterprise class 
systems.
Management would like to see unbiased review of monitoring systems.

I made an attempt to do some comparison but turn out I don't have enough 
time and knowledge
to do a fair comparsion.

Is there a third-party that can spent time on doing this task ?
