Today, Hyperic is sharing an exciting new plugin as part of our ongoing preview of Hyperic HQ 4.0. The beauty of this plugin is it actually supports TWO products:
As a relative new-comer to the Hyperic Engineering team, I would like to use this opportunity to introduce myself to the community. I spent the previous two years as a platform engineer working on the Oracle Communication and Mobility Server. At Oracle, I helped integrate the J2EE and SIP application servers, exposing management and configuration features via Java Management Extensions (JMX).

In this HyperCAST, Marty Messer walks through the creation and deployment of SNMP-based plugins in Hyperic HQ. New users to Hyperic HQ often don’t know that an HQ agent can be used to connect to other SNMP-enabled devices on a network. This session shows you how to leverage that.

We are positively stoked to be going to this weekend’s Lug Radio Live in San Francisco! Lug Radio Live (LRL) will be held on April 12 and 13 at the Metreon on 4th and Howard, which you’ll note is approximately 2 blocks from Hyperic headquarters. LRL features a who’s who of prominent Open Source luminaries, including Jeremy Allison of Samba fame, Miguel de Icaza, Ian Murdoch, ‘Mako’ Hill, and many others. I’ve been assured that I’m also on the program at 3pm on Sunday, April 13, although my name is not listed :)

Jon Travis, Principal Engineer at Hyperic and the guru behind HQU, did a HyperCAST yesterday on our newly released HQU UI plugin framework. To read more about HQU, see hquplugins.org - basically, HQU lets you build custom UI views, integrate with web services, interact directly with the HQ engine, and script out automated tasks.
The highlight of the HyperCAST is a Jira integration piece that took about 5 minutes.

InfoWorld has published extensive interviews with a stable of Open Source thought leaders on the eve of the Open Source Business Conference. Dubbed The Open Source Roundtable, it delivers a series of interviews with 11 individuals on the vanguard of Open Source, including, I was pleased to learn, Javier Soltero. For the sake of completeness, the others include Matt Asay of Alfresco, Dave Rosenberg of MuleSource, Chris DiBona of Google, Bruce Perens, ESR, Sam Ramji of Microsoft, Mark Spencer of Digium, Bob Sutor of IBM, Zack Urlocker of MySQL, and Andy Astor of EnterpriseDB.

In addition to our post yesterday on the subject of the Open Source Initiative (OSI) and whether they represent us, I was encouraged to see a few others pop up with a similar line of thinking.
Mark Hinkle actually delved into the OSI by-laws and reported what he found.
Reuven Lerner opened the question of who should lead the Open Source community.
Both of these attack the problem from different angles, but the question remains: is the current setup the best we can manage? I would argue no.

There has been significant conversation around the OSI of late, spurred by Bruce Perens campaign to become a board member. Having had a long history myself in Free and Open Source Software, the recent activity bears reflection and begs the question “What is the purpose of the Open Source Initiative?” Let’s take a look at the definition of Initiative (noun):
- an introductory act or step; leading action: to take the initiative in making friends.
- readiness and ability in initiating action; enterprise: to lack initiative.

I was quite startled to learn yesterday that next week is OSBC (the Open Source Business Conference). As in, 7 days from now. We’ve got a few things going on at this year’s edition.
Javier will appear in the panel I’ll Show You My Forge If You Show Me Yours at 10:30am on Wednesday, March 26. The topic of discussion will be how you engage users and developers and sell them on the forge concept, and there will be a whole lot of expertise on hand to discuss it. Besides Javier, there’s also Rod Johnson, CEO of SpringSource, Dave Rosenberg, CEO of MuleSource, and Joe “Zonker” Brockmeier, OpenSUSE’s Community Director. Moderating is Eric Knorr, Editor-in-chief of InfoWorld. Now *that’s* a high-powered panel.
