Hi Michael, I'm the lead developer on the Nagios Looking Glass project, and I'm currently in the middle of a new website for the project, as well as co-ordinating development on the next major release, code-named "Padlock."
Feel free to suggest any features you would like to the NLG project tracker (http://arctic.mailnetwork.co.uk) and I can investigate how viable they are. A full status-map such as the one in the Nagios CGIs will be very tricky, but I am planning some form of improved dashboard for Padlock, based on the use of host/service groups as defined in Nagios.
