--- Comment #9 from Michael Friedrich <michael.friedrich@xxxxxxxxx> ---
Just a short note with my lead core dev hat on:

Icinga 1.x is ~5 years old after forking from Nagios. It runs smooth and stable
in small and large scale environments and may act as drop-in Nagios replacement
with additional features. See
https://wiki.icinga.org/display/Dev/Bug+and+Feature+Comparison for a detailed
list.

Icinga 2.x is a complete rewrite from scratch providing compatible interfaces
(status files, DB IDO, Livestatus, Command Pipe, etc) whilst introducing a new
configuration format and additional features such as a native cluster stack
based on IPv4/6 and x509.

While the transition/upgrade from 1.x to 2.x may not be the easiest (although
we're trying very hard), they can run side by side and won't harm each other.
Having both packages installed won't hurt the system, they run happily on my
laptop every day during development.

The Icinga 1.x Classic UI is compatible with Icinga 2.x so at least a
"requirement" somehow. Although team Icinga is currently working on a new 2.0
Icinga Web which is probably ready soon.

In terms of the review I'd highly appreciate it if Icinga 1.x would hit Fedora
and EPEL7 after all those years. The community will definitely appreciate it.

Once Icinga (Web) 2.x are ready for their final releases (hopefully Q2 but
never say never), packages and review requests should be pushed seperately
imho. If you want to testdrive Icinga 2 RPMs - Snapshot SRPMs are available
here http://packages.icinga.org/epel/6/snapshot/src/
