I spent some time on what will be 0.97 this weekend (it was a long weekend in the UK). Most of the features are Cacti-specific this time:

  • RRD Aggregation is fixed again
  • Various locale fixes
  • a rather limited INCLUDE command
  • absolute SCALEs
  • Map groups - show up as tabs in the Cacti UI. Each group can have additional settings.
  • The same map can be added multiple times (useful with per-group and per-map settings)
  • Support for TheWitness' DSStats plugin - this allows for quick and easy daily, weekly, monthly average and peak maps, without lots of calls to rrdtool. Goes great with groups, per-group settings, and multiple copies of the same map.

I hope to have at least a test version before the end of September, depending on what my day job throws at me this month.
