For the moment we should wait with new uploads until this one reaches
sarge.
Except if we get bugreports that would block it, of course.

For the rest of the bugs in the BTS - i dont think if thats enough for
experimental (Hey, I only left 4), we can simply wait the few days IMO.

#274971 looks like a new package. Not to be included in nagios IMO.
But maintained from us.
I suggest that we have another part in CVS for the icons, again only the
debian/ subdir (named icons :) ) and then package the icons in different
binary packages, for each set one package.
Repackaged upstream source, copied everything below ./setname and then
put that with package.install files in the right location).
Comments? If not I do it this way this weekend if nothing more important
hits my way :)

#282132 needs a new dpatch as 999_update_docu or something like this. Be
careful with 999_fix_html_paths as that one plays in these files. :)

#186505 needs a careful solution, to not break existing setups. I
suggest to duplicate the "wrong named" commands with the consistent
naming scheme and to add a NEWS.Debian AND Readme.Debian that we will
drop the old inconsistent names after sarge released. That would be a
good close for this one imo. A new 08_something dpatch would be best.

#269221 is completly left to you. :)

Thats just what I thought while I was doing the work on nagios.
BTW: Still only "works", no "fails" reports.

BTW2: We have 23 subscribers in the pts....

Ah, debian/watch can be deleted (I dont see a single reason for watch
files). Or updated if you like that more.

Another thing we can do is to maybe deliver a "nicer" default config for
nagios. I cleaned the config stuff a bit while I was at it, but Im sure
there can be done much more. Maybe post-sarge.

Does anyone really needs/uses minimal.cfg we ship? I would suggest to
just ship it in the examples, not in /etc.
