Re: [hobbit] Xymon roadmap

[david.peters (at) dpi.nsw.gov.au]

I am happy to contribute to the development effort. I have some changes to 
the core code that I currently maintain onsite here and merge into the 
main code whenever we download a new version for release. Not the sort of 
changes I would release into the core code, but nevertheless I am 
conmfortable with C and the core of xymon.

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.
