Hi! There were several discussions on the list regarding what i will
mention and i will reiterate the basic points in order to have some kind
of definitive closure regarding these and see if there are worthy of
doing (either in GSoC or not)

I will refer only to gmond framework:
1. Adding a string to globals similar to hostname named something like
host_uuid; it can contain either a fixed (overridden) uuid or some
automatic approach can be chosen (later) (with sensible defaults like
empty); this could pave the way for have uuid-->metrics association
instead of hostname-->metrics

2. make cluster name be (also) a pool metric of the host; this could
pave the way to have gmond aggregators (gmonds that gather data from
devices in close network proximity but in different logical partitions
(clusters)); something like this i think would be useful in clouds or
distributed computing associations like the grid.

I imagine/hope that these addons will have no impact on gmetad and are
completely backward compatible.

So, what the experts think?
Thank you for taking this into consideration,
Adrian
