RE: Upcoming release 0.2.6

Hi,

My opinion is that it's better to release 0.2.6 now and have time till next
release, to try, play with it and fix possible bugs. So that 0.2.7 will
contain the same but tested functionality + logs.

Regards,
Igor.

Hi all!

For now, changes already made from 0.2.5 are:

- Added possibility to change size of ICMP echo request packets sent by
server
- Added built-in syslog server
- Implemented retrieving of only last N records from event log
- Implemented "Select DCI" function for templates
- Implemented own MIB compiler, removing last dependency from Net-SNMP
library
- MIBs now transferred to client in compiled form, reducing network
traffic
  and making console startup faster
- Implemented correct translation of SNMPv1 trap id to SNMPv2 trap id
- Core agent:
        - Ported to AIX
        - Fixed bug in signal handling causing agent to crash on
shutdown
- PING subagent:
        - Ported to NetWare and AIX
        - Added "packet size" argument to Icmp.Ping(*) parameter
        - Added "packet size" option to target configuration
        - Added DefaultPacketSize configuration parameter
- Port checker subagent ported to AIX
- Added possibility to build statically linked agents
- Event configuration improved
- New MIBs added: BGP4, PowerNet (APC), PRINTER,
  Synoptics (now part of Nortel Networks), UPS
- Fixed issues: #12, #46, #48, #49, #50, #51, #54

The only thing planned to implement in 0.2.6 but not done yet is log
monitoring. I estimate that we need at least one week (or may be more)
to implement this. So the question - if somebody needs listed
features/changes, we can release 0.2.6 now, and release version 0.2.7 in
a week or two, which will add log monitoring functionality, or delay
0.2.6 for the same week or two. What is preferred?

Best regards,
Victor
