The Ganglia development team is proud to release version
3.0.5 (Louis) of the popular Ganglia monitoring software.
Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for
high-performance computing systems such as clusters and
Grids.

The latest release is available for immediate download from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=43021&package_id=35280

This release has a few feature/portability enhancements as
well as the usual array of bugfixes.

Work is underway for the next (3.1.0) release of Ganglia
which will allow metrics to be dynamically loaded via DSO.
These metrics can be written either in C or Python making it
extremely easy to create plugins for monitoring metrics not
already present by default. Apr, expat and libconfuse will
be built dynamically in the new release which will make
packaging for distributions easier.
