Nice. I'll look through it when I'm done feature-completing Merlin.

It's been discussed and decided. The consensus is that we will as soon
as Ethan has
time to look through git and learn it to an acceptable level so he
feels comfortable
with it. Me and Ton are just waiting for the go-ahead, which we hope
will come rather
soon.

In the meantime, we both maintain git repositories with separate
branches for our
own development. Mine is rebased onto master every once in a while, so
it shouldn't
be considered a stable base for development.

You'll find mine at

git://git.op5.org/nagios.git dev

I'll rebase that one later today though, and possibly submit the patches to CVS
via the export-commit functionality in git.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
