There are still a lot of gaps in the wiki, and quite a few dead links, but they should be sorted out in the next couple of weeks [...]]]></description>

Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I like Nagios. I think it&#8217;s an excellent piece of software and I have spent many years working with it, but I have just completed a proof of concept and gained approval to deploy OpenNMS as a new Enterprise Grade Network Monitoring System.

		<description><![CDATA[I just watched two girls having a conversation over the balcony in a department store which ended as follows:
Girl1: I was looking for you, I&#8217;ll come up and visit you.
Girl2: No, I&#8217;ll come to you. Where are you?
