Hi everybody, I have the feeling a lot of people are using NetBox, and I wonder how you are all dealing with things that are not supported or not working the way you want/need.
My personal biggest requirement has been to be able to trace DWDM connections accross circuits and patch panels. I became a NetBox maintainer for a while and worked on getting this implemented right in NetBox 2.8 and 2.9. But now 2.10 has been released, and no path trace will traverse a circuit anymore. I have no idea why it's been broken again, and to be honest I don't have the energy to go back and fix it *again*. Jeremy (NetBox "manager") just told me to file a feature request to restore the broken functionality, which is not very helpful. I was wondering: how do other NetBox users deal with this? Maintain your own fork (there seem to be MANY forks on GitHub), stick with a version that works, ...? I know there are people already looking to do a LibreNMS-style fork of NetBox and continue development under more community-friendly management. Would people be interested in something like that? Because that's definitely the style that I want to contribute to :) Cheers, Sander _______________________________________________ opensource-wg mailing list opensource-wg@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/opensource-wg
