I thought to download a more or less current version of mon.

According to http://sourceforge.net/projects/mon/ mon-0.38.20 is
the current version, with a timestamp of 2000-08-29, it even has an
"ANNOUNCE" file.

According to ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/admin/mon/ it says
"LATEST-STABLE-IS-0.99.2" with a timestamp of 09/08/2001

For the daredevils there's a "devel" tree, with loads of mon-0.99*, all
timestamped 2003/2004, and I personally run already for years mon-1.0pre4
without any significant problem.

Also I see loads of mon-1.0pre* but nowhere a mon-1.0.tar.gz, but I *do*
see mon-1.1.0pre? files.  So I guess mon went from 1.0pre5 to 1.1pre1,
whilst skipping any "stable" or "this is our current baseline" mention.

This is all rather disheartening.

Cleaning out the tree would take no more than fifteen minutes, and would
consist of deleting all references (maybe under "obsolete") to 0.38 and
0.99 versions, and making a symlink from mon.1.0.gz to mon.1.0pre5.gz.
