Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on the new monitor site that is being set up (theshire.sf.net)...Sourceforge accepted it late last night ( around midnight EDT). I want to work with Henrik a bit to make sure that our visions converge on this. I also need to set up the categories (at a minimum) before turning everyone loose...I would prefer there to be some structure in place beforehand. Please be patient...I really appreciate everyone's enthusiasm for this project and I hope to have everything going in the next few days. It's also been a LONG time since I've done anything on SF and need to refresh my memory about things (and become familiar with some of the new tools).

OK...we're getting to the point to where we need to consider the categories...personally, I think deadcat has too many. I'd like to keep the categories as straightforward as possible. I'm open to ideas as to what the basic categories should be...I'm also going to see how many times I can use the word categories in this email...
I'm hoping the the BBWin folks will consider using this area as well.
I'm not going to prompt with the list of categories I have in mind as
I'd rather hear what other users think first.
I'd also like to provide a tutorial on writing monitoring scripts complete with the graphing and alerting. Henrik has provided some basic framework for a basic client and server script. I should probably go back through the archives to see what already exists as well (if you know of something, by all means, please point me to it).
I have a developers list and announcement list set up. I still need to flesh the details out a bit more. I'd like to set up a job that automatically sends a daily report to the announce list if new/updated monitors are added but I'm going to have to figure that out later. (I can see why Henrik hasn't found the time to tackle this :-) )
