I would want separate patches for each nagions plugin against the
current CVS tree. The 'motor' (I assume you mean nagios itself) already
has the support.

If I/we get a managable trickle of such patches (say 2 per week), and
they are of good quality, then we can pretty much asure everyone they
will be applied within days. Otherwise, we'll try our best, but there
are other patches and bugs too, plus or jobs...

Well you know the drill. That;s what would make it go fastest.
