This is a major milestone in the 2.0 release of OpenIPMI.  The GUI is
for the most part done and it's getting close to time to make 2.0 the
stable version of OpenIPMI.

So, if you use OpenIPMI, please download this and try out the GUI. 
Support is pretty complete (especially since ipmish is built into it). 
It has a tree-structured hierarchy of domains, entities, sensors,
controls, and MCs.  You can do pretty much anything with a sensor,
control, or entityt and there is extensive support for MC operations. 
Configuring users, channels, and LAN parameters is easy wit the GUI.  It
has coloring telling the worst error level for the element below.  It's
pretty cool.

The GUI really requires python 2.2 or later and the 2.6 version of
wxPython (there is some trying to support 2.4, but because of the glib
1.2 requirement of wxPython 2.4 and OpenIPMI's use of glib 2.0 it is
hard and it will likely result in concurrency issues).

There have been a couple of binary renames.  ipmish is now named
openimpish and ipmicmd is now named openipmicmd.  There are currently
links created for backwards compatability.

Still left to do:

* Finish up some GUI things like PEF and PET support, SNMP traps, and a
few other less used things.

* SOL integration into the command language, and a general review of SOL.

* General testing for all the supported things.

Please, try this out.  I think you will like the GUI; it's something
I've wanted for a long time and make things much easier to view and handle.
