Day Jobs and Delays

There are only two of us coding and working on ClearSite, and we both have day jobs that are keeping us from finishing our first release. We are working on the install script, requirements and documentation. We must apologize for the delay, and every time I look at the analytics for our project and websites, I get more and more anxious to finish the release. The good news is, one of us is loosing their job soon, so there should be more free time to work on this. Please stay tuned!

It's OK! But what about topology maps with link load indication, chassis inventory, configs management and customer services? We've done it and using for 3 years. Best of all is real time statistics. If you like I'll send you some screenshots.
Regards.

PS. It's a straightforward way to loose a job ;) Maybe I am wrong...

Weather maps... I'm not big on weather maps in their current form, well at least those I've used with Cacti and Nagios. I am trying to rethink how they are done and how they could be more effectively displayed.
As for the inventory piece, that is still also in the planning stages. I don't think were going to have it all rolled into one piece anytime soon, but we definitely feel it's needed.
Our tool does have "real-time" inventory of IP/MAC/HostName but it doesn't save it perse, it's more of a network snapshot than a tracking or asset managment piece. Feel free to email me if you would like to discuss further, sorry for any delay in the release and my response!
