We've had our hobbit install up and runnning for a couple of months now. Its 4.2.0 running on a Suse machine, and everything works great, built from source.
But our install doesn't have the hobbit-holidays.cfg file, and I can't find any of the .h or c files for it in the source. Its also not referenced in our manual pages, like I see it on the online man pages on the hobbit demo site. I don't remember it being an option that you had to answer yes to when doing the build/install.
I've tried doing find commands to look for any file in the hobbit directories with holiday in the string, but no hits...
So any ideas on how I can get that feature enabled/working?
Thanks, Taylor
hobbit-holidays.cfg will appear as of 4.3.0 (or the latest snapshot).

Is there an easy way to get just the holidays functionality from the snapshot, or to upgrade from 4.2.0 to 4.3.0?

Pretty confident your only option to enable holidays is to get the snapshot. 4.3.0 has yet to release - please do not ask when it will be released =)

I won't ask when it will be released, I'm just glad there is development going on. To those of you doing the development, thank you. You may want to update the Sourceforge page every once in a while, though, so people don't think the project is entirely dead. When I went there I was afraid the whole project had collapsed, judging from the dates of last updates and the one lonely guy in the messgae forum saying "Is this project alive?" - and that appears to be the only forum message in the last couple years.
I'm relieved to hear, on this list, that hobbit is being actively developed. You don't have to promise release dates or anything, but you may want to just post a note on the Sourceforge page every couple months saying "the project sis still alive and under development" or "Maybe a new version sometime later this year" or whatever.
I'm curious about what people mean when they say they're running "4.2.0 with the all-inclusive patch". Hobbit has patches? I didn't even know. I thought the 4.2.0 source code package was the latest thing. Posting patches at Sourceforge might also not be a bad idea.
Anyways just a suggestion. Thanks for the work on the project, Josh.

You can get the all-in-one patch from Henrik's server:
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbitsw/patches/The current 4.3.0 snapshot is here:
http://www.hswn.dk/beta/but that's a work-in-progress, so sometimes it won't even compile cleanly.

Hi Doug,
I agree. I've not had Hobbit installed here for some time now (too much to do, not enough time) and after looking at the SF site, feared the project had died as well. I think that the public facing part of the project is as important as the code development itself - keeping people informed about the project status is actually important - if all potential customers see the project as being dead, well...
I'm hoping to again look at Hobbit in the near(ish) future and am definitely glad the project is having some development still - it is a nice, usable product, however I'd like to see a little more Windows environment support (stats and monitoring, not the hobbit project running on Windows) as that's where most of our client base lies...

The mailing list is definitely active. There is only one developer, Henrik, to my knowledge.
It is far from dead. Pretty sure there is code changes at least once a week, often several times a week. One developer getting it this far is, as far as I am concerned, something to be proud of.
About the Windows stuff...I am not even going to touch it coming from such an un-objective view =P You have BBWIN as a client which should cover what you need, though.

I answered you some days ago that you should not have any problem with the bbwinupdate agent even with BBWin 0.11. It is still supported.
Let me know if you have issues.

Hello Maik,

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Good morning! Well, I currently use some bbwin clients v0.11, but I wasn't able to use the bbwinupdate same way like I used at the older version (v0.9) I have changed the config swar like before, I have added the bbwinupdate.dll at the config and have set the depend server config file. But it doesn't work. If I use an v0.9 client, it is working fine. At the tmp folder, I get the 2 configs (bbwin.cfg.update + bbwin.cfg.work), but with version 0.11 I don't get these two conf files at the tmp folder. Also the log file doesn't show any messages about it.
What's happend there?
Maik
Could you post your bbwin.cfg file so I can test it ?
Thanks,
Etienne.

Josh, I agree - the project seems to be quite active and that's great. My comment was that it *looks* dead from a public view. Anyone who does not subscribe to this list would assume, just from looking at the existing Source Forge Site and Hobbit site, that no changes have been made for years. The main "about" page mentions that the latest release was 2005. The Source Forge main project page lists 4.2.0 as released in 2006.
I think Henrik is doing a great job and I'd rather have a developer doing development than PR. I don't blame him if he doesn't want to spend any time on web updates, I'm sure the project consumes more than enough of his free time as it is. And that's fine with me, this isn't a criticism. I still get to use this very nice software. All I meant was that the project *looks* dead from the outside to anyone who is not on this list, so hypothetically if we wanted to grow the user community and maybe attract more developers, it might be a good idea to spend 30 minutes every couple months just posting "a this project is still alive" status message.
Cheers,
Doug Linder
Perhaps some of the more active Hobbit proponents might get themselves signed up as developers on SourceForge and brush up the site a little? If nothing else, add pointers to The Shire and the mailing list, and mention that SourceForge facilities are NOT being used to manage the development/release process...

The main "about" page mentions that the latest release was 2005. The Source Forge main project page lists 4.2.0 as released in 2006.
I think Henrik is doing a great job and I'd rather have a developer doing development than PR. I don't blame him if he doesn't want to spend any time on web updates, I'm sure the project consumes more than enough of his free time as it is. And that's fine with me, this isn't a criticism. I still get to use this very nice software. All I meant was that the project *looks* dead from the outside to anyone who is not on this list, so hypothetically if we wanted to grow the user community and maybe attract more developers, it might be a good idea to spend 30 minutes every couple months just posting "a this project is still alive" status message.

Does anyone here feel up to making a quick little informative website?
I wouldn't have a problem with stealing some template out there and just plugging some information in if no one else wants to take the torch.

Perhaps some of the more active Hobbit proponents might get themselves signed up as developers on SourceForge and brush up the site a little? If nothing else, add pointers to The Shire and the mailing list, and mention that SourceForge facilities are NOT being used to manage the development/release process...

The mailing list is definitely active. There is only one developer, Henrik, to my knowledge. It is far from dead. Pretty sure there is code changes at least once a week, often several times a week.
Josh, I agree - the project seems to be quite active and that's great. My comment was that it *looks* dead from a public view. Anyone who does not subscribe to this list would assume, just from looking at the existing Source Forge Site and Hobbit site, that no changes have been made for years. The main "about" page mentions that the latest release was 2005. The Source Forge main project page lists 4.2.0 as released in 2006.
