[Openhpi-devel] OpenHPI 2.0.2 released!

[Renier M. <re...@us...>]

OpenHPI 2.0.2 has been released. This is essentially a bug fix from head 
to tail. The following bug fixes were geared to resolve threading issues:

    * The event loop was reworked and improved
    * The Blade Center plugin is now completely thread safe
    * The snmp utility wrappers are now using the net-snmp thread safe 
mdoel

Other fixes include:

    * Improved resource and inventory readings in IPMI plugin
    * IPMI direct plugin now ported to B spec
    * More unit tests added to the resource precense table and event log 
utilities
    * Restriction lifted in resource table to accept an HPI defined set of 
resource types for compatibility with ipmi plugins which can report a 
larger set of types not in the HPI resource set.
