Nagios Segmentation Fault

[Stanley Hopcroft]

Dear Sir,

This has _nothing_ whatsoever to do with Messers Galstad or de Bisschop

The embedded stuff is _all_ contributed code.

The incumbent embedded Perl maintainer, failed utterly to get his act
together with this stuff, and unfortunately for them, these men trusted
him to do it.

Send flames to me personally but do not bother the list with "it's 
borked, why isn't it fixed".

If you want release management, regular updates and bug fixes, an 
account representative to 'negotiate with', then Open Source Software is 
not for you.

In fact it is precisely these requirements that people articulate when 
they choose commercial software because Real people loathe developers 
and software ("we don't do code, thanks"); they can't bear the thought 
of relying on someone they can't manipulate with a contract.  
All they want is the shrink wrapped plastic and the up front cost.

Read what people say who code: they have all the disappointments and 
pressures that you and I have - all the trappings of what passes for 
life in this world - yet they still manage to give back what they have 
received.

Yours sincerely.

'...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the
continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
