OT Pre announce Nagios::Report 0.003

[Stanley Hopcroft]

Dear Folks,

Another release of Nagios::Report (0.003) is scheduled for release shortly.

Why should you care ?

Well, if you rely on the standard (ie distributed with Nagios)
availability report, this module makes it easier to use from the CLI.

Included with the distro is example/host_down_report which demontrates
what you can do.

For example, to find all the outages for the first 3 Months of the
year, for hosts matching FOO

The module is waiting on a bug testers report (from the previous
version) which affected Nagios installations with US dates.

Fixing the bug was also an opportunity to add the facility that lets
you easily provide your boss with  a list of outages - this is what is
important to us, not the percentage availability figures - for all the
'State offices' last year since September.

Note that this module is a wrapper for avail.cgi and thus has the same
bugs as the normal CGI report.

Enjoy.

Yours sincerely.
