+Status Report on RRDtool OSS Project
+====================================
+
+RRDtool work for 2007 is sponored by these companies:
+
+Gold Sponors: 
+
+* GroundWork Open Source - IT Monitoring & Network Solutions
+  www.groundworkopensource.com
+
+* ZenOSS - Open Source Enterprise Monitoring
+  www.zenoss.com
+
+Silver Sponsors:
+
+* op5 - Systems and Network Monitoring 
+* Host Europe - World Class Internet Hosting & Services
+* Contego Solutions - Managed Firewall, Managed VPN, and Secure Data Hosting
+
+Current Activities
+------------------
+
+* Code Maintenance. Mails on the mailing-lists and directly to me indicate
+  compatibility issues or suggest little changes. These are often implemented
+  directly.
+
+* Mailing-list, Web-server, Trac Maintenance. The on-line resources for
+  RRDtool are kept up-to-date, in working order and spam free.
+
+* Bug Fixing. Bugs reported through the Trac bug report form are
+  dealt with within a few days.
+
+* Planning for first RRDtool 1.3 implementation work.
+
+Accomplishments
+---------------
+* All on-line Resources migrated away from the University Resources
+  to http://oss.oetiker.ch and https://lists.oetiker.ch
+
+* RRD tutorial written and held at the LinuxForum.DK
+  http://www.linuxforum.dk/2007/program/saturday/Tobi_Oetiker.shtml
+
+* RRDtool 1.2.16, 1.2.17, 1.2.18, 1.2.19 released
+  https://lists.oetiker.ch/pipermail/rrd-announce/
+
+* Many small fixed in both the documentation and the graph code. The
+  stricter parsing introduced in 1.2.16 borough a number of odd coding
+  practices of RRDtool users to light.
+
+* Rewrote and stabilized the build process for the RRDtool python bindings
+  based on contributions form Zenoss.
+
+* Integrated patches for improved stability in multi-threaded environments.
+
+* Improved rrd_fetch behavior in situations where RRA coverage was not
+  complete.
+
+Planned Activities
+------------------
+
+* From April to June: Start on the implementation of the 1.3 features listed
+  in http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/RRDtool13
+
+  The first order of work will be the switch from libart to cairo.
+
+* Maintenance of series 1.2.x

+
+* Implementation 1.3 release
+
+* Planning for 1.4 release
+
+Accomplishments
+---------------
+* RRDtool 1.3
+
+  * Migration form libart to Cairo/Pango is complete providing versatile
+    basis for graphical output.
+
+    - Improved stability
+    - PDF output with embeded TrueType fonts, equivalent to
+      what is seen in the standard PNG output.
+    - Anti-Aliasing can be disabled for 'rrdtool 1.0 look'
+    - Access to the standard font management system (fontconfig)
+      for access to a wide range of fonts.
+    - Inline markup, allowing font, color, size, boldness changes
+      in all text elements of the rrdtool output
+
+    Sample Output on http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/RRDtool13
+
+  * Performance Improvements. Working with contributors, the RRDtool
+    data access was switched to MMAP. Together with appropriate madvise
+    settings this lead to a massively log-update-performance, coupled with
+    better much better cache management.
+    
+    See http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/TuningRRD
+
+  RRDtool 1.3 beta will be released for LinuxWorld 2007.
+
+* RRDtool 1.4
+
+  * Research into a portable dataformat for RRDtool has shown a promising
+    implementation strategy. 
+
+    http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/PortableRrdFormat
+
+
+* RRDtool 1.2.20, 1.2.21, 1.2.22, 1.2.23 released
+  https://lists.oetiker.ch/pipermail/rrd-announce/
+
+Planned Activities
+------------------
+
+* Release of RRDtool 1.3.0
+
+* Implementation of RRDtool 1.4 with a targeted released at LISA 2007 in November.
+
+  The main feature of the 1.4 release will the portable data format.

+* LISA Tutorials on RRDtool
+
+* Beta Testing for 1.3 release
+
+* Planning for 1.4 release
+
+Accomplishments
+---------------
+* RRDtool 1.3
+
+  * At Linux World I have released the first BETA for RRDtool 1.3.
+
+  * Unfortunately there has not been all that much response to the Beta
+    release. Either it works for most who try or they are happy with what
+    they have. In any event I will release 1.3.0 before the years end,
+    probably followed by a rapid succession of updates as more people will
+    start using the 'real' update.
+
+  * People who have been testing the new release have seen dramatic
+    performance improvements with Linux 2.6.  See also next section.
+
+* RRDtool 1.2.x
+
+  * Work presented by Dave Plonka at LISA 2007 suggests that Linux 2.6
+    read-a-head behavior is badly hurting RRDtool performance . Using
+    fadvise RANDOM it is possible to counteract this and provide a massive
+    performance boost. With this he was able to run an RRD setup with over
+    200k RRDs updated in a 5 minute cycle. Other users have since confirmed
+    this.
+
+    Daves work is included in RRDtool 1.2.25 as well as 1.3beta.
+
+    http://www.usenix.org/event/lisa07/tech/plonka.html
+
+  * A long standing bug where the handling of min and max values in graphs
+    with min == max and max < 0 was resolved.
+
+
+* RRDtool 1.4
+
+  * The portable-data-format-release has been postponed to 2008 to allow 1.3
+    to properly stabilize. Current work is tracked on 
+
+    http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/PortableRrdFormat
+
+
+* RRDtool 1.2.24, 1.2.25, 1.2.26 released
+

+
+Sponsorship 2008
+---------------
+
+The 2008 Sponsorship program has been setup. If you have not signed up yet.
+I would be thrilled to have you as a sponsor for the next year. Please be in
+touch.

+Status Report on the RRDtool OSS Project
+========================================
+Author:  Tobias Oetiker
+Date:    2008-11-24
+$Id$
+
+
+Accomplishments
+---------------
+
+* RRDtool 1.3
+
+  * The new major version has been released in early summer, containing
+    major updates to both the database and the graphing layer.
+
+  * Subsequent releases of the 1.3.x series focused on stability, backward
+    compatibility and performance improvements.
+
+* RRDtool 1.2.x
+
+  * Several minor stability and portability issues have been addressed
+    with new minor releases. The 1.2 series remains the most widely
+    used version of RRDtool since it is present in a wide variety of
+    Linux distributions.
+
+* Development of RRDtool 1.4
+
+  With the release of RRDtool 1.3 trunk was opened for work on RRDtool 1.4. 
+  New features include:
+
+  - RRDcached aiming at massive performance enhancements for large
+    installations with hundreds of thousands of RRD files.
+
+  - SQL database access for RRDtool graph. This allows to use RRDtool's
+    excellent graphing capabilities on time series data
+    acquired directly from a SQL database (through libdbi).
+
+  RRDtool 1.4 is in a stabilization phase now, prior to release of the
+  first release candidates in early 2009.
+
+
+Other Ongoing Activities
+------------------------
+
+* Code Maintenance: mails on the mailing-lists and directly to me
+  indicate compatibility issues or suggest little changes. These are
+  often implemented immediately.
+
+* Mailing-list, Web-server, Trac maintenance. The on-line resources
+  for RRDtool are kept up-to-date, in working order and spam free.
+
+* Several tutorials and Bofs on RRDtool at LISA 2009 (conference on
+  Large Installation System Administration, Nov 2008, San Diego, U.S.)
+
+* Run-up for RRDtool 1.4 release in 2009
+
+* Fully automated and minimally tested nightly releases of the 1.2, 1.3 and
+  trunk code.
+
+
+Planned Activities
+------------------
+
+* Release of RRDtool 1.4.0
+
+* Continued support for 1.2.x, 1.3.x 
+
+* Development of RRDtool 1.5
+
+  The major feature of 1.5 will be the portable data format that allows to
+  read and write rrd files across all platforms where rrdtool is supported.
+  Preliminary information about this feature can be found in
+
+    http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/PortableRrdFormat
