DB store for cfg data

[Ed L.]

I'm looking for a suitable monitoring system, and have recently spent some 
time evaluating Nagios.  I notice that 1.2 appears to have some support for 
local storage of cfg data (eg., hosts, groups, contacts, dependencies) in a 
relational database (pgsql/mysql) as opposed to the flat files in 
nagios/etc/*.cfg.  A brief glance at the cvs logs since 1.2 seems to 
suggest it's all been gutted long ago (Dec 2002?), and also appears to be 
removed from the latest configure script on the cvs trunk.

Is there a current nagios developer consensus on the value of cfg storage in 
an RDBMS?  Not worth doing?  Others working on it?  Is it desired?

TIA.

Ed
