Judging by what you said, you're already one :) Feel free to share
all your plugins on the Exchange, so all Nagios users can benefit
from them. That's all there is to it :)
If you want to get involved with the core plugin dev team, speak to
Ton Voon... See if he needs more hands on his team.
Well I suppose in that sense I am a plugin developer but I was really considering such things as: guidelines for interfacing with the Nagios host ( i.e. standard plugin syntax?) How much output text is appropriate, performance considerations, security considerations, style considerations, documentation, versioning, revision control, licensing, anything else before unleashing my plugin onto someone else's production systems, etc. Do such guidelines / conventions exist? As far as becoming a core developer, I don't think I have the C behind me (like any).:-)

Alex
