Same here in regard of xymon deployment. But what I am worry about is that we still don't have a team of developers to develop xymon(hobbit). we(including me ;) are still relying solely on henrik's free development effort.

Can you put down what you like to see in this url ?

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Developer_Guide#Development_Road_Map

But put down wish lists is one thing, getting it done by others is another.
Not many xymon developers know C and xymon program architecture and also have free time to work on features in the roadmap.
