For those of you who haven't seen yet, the voting for Nagios Seedcamp projects began today! As background, this (first) Seedcamp was a call for completely new and interesting projects for use with Nagios Core and/or Nagios XI, including wizards, check plugins, and documentation. Fifteen submissions were received, and from the descriptions there look to be some pretty nifty things in there.
So now we enter phase two, which is where YOU, all of our lovely users and community members, should go check out the submissions in the Seedcamp category of the Nagios Exchange (http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Seedcamp) and then vote for them. Read the descriptions, download and install, play around with them, and then let us know what you think at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/3Z9JRDX ! Voting will be open for two weeks, after which the winners will be announced. The authors of the top three projects as determined by your votes will be awarding cash prizes in the amount of $1,000, $750, and $500 USD respectively. Hopefully this will then encourage further development and improvement of those projects and others to follow. For a little more about Seedcamp (and the URL to tell your friends), see http://www.nagios.org/seedcamp . As an aside and disclosure, I'll mention that two of the projects are my own submissions. Both work with both Nagios Core and Nagios XI: * Ubuntu / Debian (and family) Nagios Agent package (works with both XI and Core) (written on company time) http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/Monitoring-Agents/Ubuntu-Nagios-Agent/details * Common Alerting Protocol check plugin (for things like severe weather notices, Amber alerts, and other civil emergency notifications (written on personal time) http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Others/check_cap-%252D-check-Common-Alerting-Protocol-feeds/details Now go check them all out, and don't forget to vote! -- Tony Yarusso Technical Team ___ Nagios Enterprises, LLC Email: tyaru...@nagios.com Web: www.nagios.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
