Hi Michael,

I'm the lead developer on the Nagios Looking Glass project, and I'm 
currently in the middle of a new website for the project, as well as 
co-ordinating development on the next major release, code-named "Padlock."

Feel free to suggest any features you would like to the NLG project 
tracker (http://arctic.mailnetwork.co.uk) and I can investigate how 
viable they are.  A full status-map such as the one in the Nagios CGIs 
will be very tricky, but I am planning some form of improved dashboard 
for Padlock, based on the use of host/service groups as defined in Nagios.

Regards,

Andy.
