Hi, Zen Masters.
Zen developers are always very gratefully about your requirements,
proposals and suggestions. They make we can move on in the right way.
Zen developers are working always with the idea of making a good product.
The team is now working hard in Enterprise Edition, but the Community
Edition will be updated as soon as possible, including OS version and load
balancing cores, the bugs will be solved and be sure that Zen will have new
features, as we did before.
All your contributions are welcome. If you want to deploy a monitoring
plugin, do it. If you want to translate documents, or you want we link a
post in your blog, you only have to send us a mail or write us by one of
the zenloadbalancer.com contact forms. But you can do it now, you don't
need anything from us to do it. Zen Load Balancer is working from 2010 with
the open source community and asks nothing in return. It's not polite to
ask things to Zen in exchange for your help.
You can understand that we cannot maintain versions for all linux
distributions, we only are going to maintain the Zen Load Balancer distro,
based in Debian 6 at this moment, but will be based in Debian 7 for the
next release. Feel free to migrate Zen to Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.
Every time we have finished a new release, we have opened a new
conversation line in this list asking for your "desires" for the next one,
and that has marked our roadmap. All the information is in our site at
www.zenloadbalancer.com. You can always be informed about our developments.
Zen makes no sense without the community, so we say thank you very much to all
Zen Masters.
Best regards...
