are there any plans about failover of Hobbit like the BigBrother does it? I had 3 BB-Server running in failover, but I can't find any hints about failover in Hobbit.

It isn't part of Hobbit currently, which is why you won't find it in the docs.

However, just a few days ago Brian Lynch sent me a detailed walk-through of how to setup two Hobbit servers in an active/passive cluster. To me, that is an ideal solution (because it doesn't require any code changes in Hobbit :-)), so that is the solution I'll recommend.

I need to edit Brian's document slightly (the line breaks have been lost in the version that was uploaded to SourceForge, but are OK in the version he mailed to me), and then I'll make it available on the SF site.
