We've <a href="http://www.freshmeat.net/projects/libstatgrab"> |
| 26 |

released</a> libstatgrab 0.4 as an individual product. You can |
| 27 |

download it <a href="http://snapshots.i-scream.org/libstatgrab"> |

here</a>. This release is functionally complete, but lacks |
| 29 |

documentation. We hope to rectify this in the next release. |

Over the coming week we will be making snapshot builds of the |
| 35 |
+ |
i-scream central monitoring system from the CVS repository. |
| 36 |
+ |
These builds will have quite a few changes from the downloads |
| 37 |
+ |
currently available (a document detailing them will be |
| 38 |
+ |
released later on), so please give them a whirl. We would be |
| 39 |
+ |
grateful if you <a href="mailto:dev@i-scream.org">contacted</a> |
| 40 |
+ |
us with any questions or bugs.<br><br> |
| 41 |

The downloads will be available on our snapshot server :-<br> |

along with more disk statistics. We are also planning to improve |

the rather basic service monitors which are currently in place. |

There are also many more subtle changes that need to be made to |
