SV: Nagios 2.0 stable

[Michael Gaskin]

Jeff, 

I care because as a company who sells solutions to corporations, the
word beta is scary.  While I agree it does appear to work, I also want
to penetrate markets that may not be a traditional open source
customer.

Bad grammar, sorry...  Need more coffee.

To put it bluntly: Who Cares?

There are so many of us running it in production (I, myself, have been
doing so since "alpha"), isn't that good enough?

There will always be bugs, no matter what you call it (alpha, beta,
pr,
rc, gold, etc).

In my, and I'm sure many others', experience, super-pre-double-alpha
code from a nice community-supported project like this is still going
to
have less bugs than anything similar from Microsoft no matter how many
"final" versions they have.

And if something major does come up, there's usually a fix/work-around
in a few hours or days, not weeks or months.

So, just run it.  If you don't like it, I'll buy you a coke.
