I am not sure if I mentioned it before, but Ralf and I happen to work together
with Michael Schwartzkopff, who is an expert in network and network
monitoring. Michael offered to hook all pydotorg machines up to a
Nagios/Zabbix/openNMS monitoring system. That would give us not only the
chance to monitor web services.

It's been a year since Michael and I talked about this, and I would have to
reconfirm he's still with us, but as I know him its more a formal thing to ask
him if he still sticks to that offer.
