This is, IMHO, one of the greatest problems with open source
development.  Too much bickering, splintering and forking dilutes the
value of the product.  It's unfortunate that the main nagios devs and
these icinga people could not work together to simply improve the
existing code base.  There are a lot of great features that could be
added to nagios, yet it feels like development on some of these major
features has been very sloooooooow.

Ethan, if you're reading this, cheer up mate.  You are sitting on a
virtual gold mine.  Nagios is hands-down the best network monitoring
system available, you should be minting money selling support
contracts for it.  If you aren't then hire some good salespeople to
sell your support contracts and maybe a find good web developer to
give the GUI an upgrade!
