Hey all -

While I love the idea of the python module, I'd like the plain-old gmetric
binary to stay as-is. I'm not sure if there are/were plans on getting rid
of it in favor of the new custom framework stuff. Some of the reasons why I
think it should stay:

I also think that it should stay. Having a basic command line program that throws data into ganglia is incredibly useful. Python bindings are great (and Perl bindings would be nifty too), but not all sites have Python installed. With a compiled version of gmetric, if you can run gmond for basic stats collection, you can then run any custom data collection you want.

Thoughts ?

Keep gmetric, and provide (or accept contributions for) bindings for other programming languages.

Just my $0.02...
