嗯，OpenNMS Stable 1.8 終於推出了，有不少新功能，可以參考 New in OpenNMS 1.8
另外，OpenNMS 自由軟體專案被選爲 SourceForge.net: Project of the Month, June 2010
，我隨手選幾個重點：
* 2000年三月在 SourceForge 註冊，專案編號 4141 （沒錯，已經十年了！）
* 2004 成立 The OpenNMS Group
公司，提供技術服務，目前已經在24個國家有客戶
了。
* 客戶有多大？文章中舉了幾個：
1. Papa Johns Pizza: "At Papa Johns Pizza, they have been using OpenNMS for years to monitor a billion dollar internet product line
. Currently, they are extending OpenNMS remote monitors into every one of their 2500 domestic stores
."
2. Swisscom Hospitality Services: "Swisscom Hospitality Services provides internet access to hotels, conferences and other public places throughout Europe. They are monitoring 52,000 devices with a single instance of OpenNMS
." (PowerOp: 這一個好像就是我抱怨過 爆貴 的 Swisscom Eurospot ，偏偏很多旅館裏面上網都靠這家 XD)
3. Rackspace: "Rackspace Managed Hosting has over 70,000 customers in data centers from
London, throughout the US, to Hong Kong
. In each one OpenNMS is used to
insure that clients network services are operational and responsive." （PowerOp: Rackspace 好像是蠻有名的虛擬主機服務）
4. New Edge Networks: "At New Edge Networks, they have integrated OpenNMS performance graphs directly into their customer portal. They are collecting 1.2 million
data points concerning bandwidth, errors and other information -- every
five minutes
."
老話一句，Free / Open Source Software 是有商機的，只是我天資魯鈍，還沒找到，目前純粹還是玩好玩的 XD
