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.
Tom has pretty much hit the nail on the head here.
It's true that I have pretty much stopped working on Xymon development.
I am not quite sure why, but for some time it has just seemed to be
more of a tedious chore than something I would look forward to. I think
the task of getting all the documentation lined up for 4.3.0 (that is the
main outstanding issue for that release) just doesn't seem all that
appealing...
So I would really welcome someone who would be willing to take over the
project management / admin tasks. Even if it were just as a co-admin,
it would still be nice to have someone else with the enthusiasm that
is necessary to push the project forward.
For me, the ideal would be if I could focus on writing code instead of
running the project.
So if you have the ambition and energy of trying to run this project,
please speak up. Choosing a (co-)admin for Xymon is an important
decision, and one that definitely needs some community involvement.
All of you must feel comfortable with the person/persons we choose
for this task.
I like to offer myself as co-admin candidate.
Let me know if all of you like to understand more about me.
Can we have more than 2 project admins ?

Henrik
