Nice work on this patch!
I've just looked over your work re: ganglia since it's what I'm familiar with.
The {{GangliaHandler}} in {{check_zookeeper.py}} makes the assumption that all
ZK variables are {{uint32}}. Looking at the list of exported variables it
appears that assumption is safe but it's something to remember. In the future,
you may want to export heterogeneous metrics with strings and floats for
example.
I think it might be possible to pass just the executable string {{'gmetric'}}
to subprocess.call instead of the full path {{'/usr/bin/gmetric'}}. This would
allow for alternative locations of gmetric to be found using the {{PATH}}
environment variable.
Your python module looks correct to me but I didn't test it.
You might want to drop a short sentence into the {{README}} that the python
module only works with the 3.1.x versions of ganglia whereas the gmetric
approach works for all versions.
