There is a developers list for the hobbitmon project on SF. A number of people are subscribed, including people with commit access. However, there is currently only one project admin for the SF project, Henrik (which means no more committers can be added at present, and some features that may assist in collaboration can't be enabled).
Is Henrik still interested in being the single admin, or should he be contacted and asked if another person can be added in that role? I recall postings where he described health issues and also a desire to stop working so much on xymon, and I don't fault him for wanting to take a break. However, it would be nice to know if he plans to work on the project again, or if he's done with it and wants to move onto other things. I've been around open source long enough to know how the process works and I respect the developers who put time in on their projects. Sure xymon works fine now, but if something changes in a distro one or more of us are using and it breaks xymon, we'll all have to make a choice on how to move forward. It would be best for the community as a whole if we had an idea of where things stood and where they might go.
Anyway, I think we should move this discussion to the developer list, and discuss a way forward there.
I joined that list so that I can follow the discussion, but I do think this topic is of interest to members of this list, too.
