I'm preparing an official 4.2.1 release (should perhaps call it 4.2.2). This is for two reasons:
To put the all-in-one patch into an official release, which is apparently necessary.
To do a preliminary renaming from Hobbit to Xymon.
is obvious, and 2) is only for documentation and web- template changes. No new stuff.
Except one new thing: The BBWin patch to allow the BBWin centralized config mode - I think this is important enough that it should go in now, since there are probably quite a few people who will want this in their setup.
Anything else ? New feature stuff will not be accepted, this is purely a maintenance version until 4.3/5.0 arrives. The trends patch from http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2007/01/msg00236.html is also handy. I use it for a lot of scripts and it is not changing any core functions. I don't know if you call this a feature....
I also have 2 small patches for aix: one for 2 extra power5 counters and one for actual memory reporting (I don't remember creating this patch myself, but I think that without this page you don't get any reports on actual memory usage on AIX). I can send the diffs to the Hobbitmon-developer mailinglist.
