Fwiw, I found the use of "last" confusing because the "last" in "rrdtool last" (the last update time) means a distinctly different thing than "last" in "rrdtool fetch ... LAST" (the latest PDP in the appropiate RRA.) At any rate, I now dislike the name "rrdlastds" for the contrib script I wrote: it doesn't report about the last DS values but rather it reports about the *current* DS values! At this point I plan on renaming "rrdlastds" to "dsvalues" and adding "dsvalues --last" for reporting about the last update values.
