Scrollable Device List
----------------------
Manage a long list off devices and quickly sort and scroll through it.


Goodbye sudo
--------------
Sudo is no longer used to start zensyslog, zentrap, and zenping.  These now use 
a C program called zensocket which has suid bit set. It starts opens the socket 
we need an then execs the python daemon handing it the socket.


EL5 64-bit
-----------
We now are building a 64-bit RPM on EL5.  EL5 has a bug in the original version 
of net-snmp.  Make sure you update it to the latest version so that snmp 
collection works.


Other User Interface Stuff
--------------------------
* Moved all Zenoss administrative functions to a single page under the left nav 
item "Zenoss Settings".
* Moved "Add Event" to the global menu under "Events" root.
* New screen for adding and binding templates to a device.
