Re: [Shinken-devel] 2.0 is out :D

[Sébastien C. <s.c...@fr...>]

Hi everyone!

I'd like to take some time to think about the Shinken project.  Almost 4
year since the first tag, (2010-05-28 23:22:39 +0200  (tag: 0.1)
), I don't know what Jean was expecting but we have come a long way now.
Shinken is another example showing open source communities can build great
things together. I'd like to thank everyone for that :)

Shinken started from a "simple" monitoring software and has evolved to a
monitoring framework, reflecting the growth of the community. More people
interested in Shinken => More features requested => Shinken evolution. I
really think (and some of you will agree) 2.0 release is a good moment to
be even more efficient. What do I mean? Well, it's only about being clear
on what we are doing and how we are doing it. I've open a ticket named 2.2
"Roadmap" on github (https://github.com/naparuba/shinken/issues/1175), feel
free to add feature request or your own work if you have the right to
commit upstream. Jean started to add his stuff, I'll do the same.
Regarding github issues, we should also stick to something. Issue are not
really made for getting "simple help" : if you are experiencing some weird
behavior of course you need help, but keep in mind that to fix a bug we
have to be able to reproduce it. Time is precious, issues should be as
clear as possible. The README has been updated by Andreas (
https://github.com/naparuba/shinken/blob/master/README.rst#if-you-find-a-bug)
a while ago.

Of course guys, we are trying to do our best to help you and keep things up
to date. We know the documentation is not perfect yet, which is the first
step to get users comfortable with Shinken. Help is always wanted on the
project, and new ideas are welcome.

Thank you again for helping Shinken
