I believe Scott over at atomicrocketturtle.com was looking into
packaging Zenoss, but found the code was pretty messy. Binaries in

believe there is some work to do there. But it looks like a pretty nice
monitoring solution. I use ZABBIX <http://www.zabbix.com/> myself.
IIRC much of this was cleaned up as Zenoss is going to be in RHX (Red Hat
eXchange) and thus they had to clean up their packaging a LOT. It would be
worth looking at again.
I sat in their presentation at Linux Fest Northwest and it was really good
stuff, and I had some talks with their PR and lead technical folks, they're
really excited to get into Fedora.
The only down side is that they use plone, and that's a no-go for F7 right
now.
Maybe they are willing to put in the effort to make Plone work with
Python 2.5 and maintain zenoss in Fedora? Doesn't hurt to use the
contacts and ask.
