Ultra Monkey is somewhat out of date, supporting RH 6.x, and 2.2.x kernels.
I have been considering updating this given recent requests for
a free alternative to do Load Balancing and/or HA straight out of the
box.
As we are talking about this I'd like to do a bit of market research
to find out what people think Ultra Monkey should do. In particular
would people be happy with a set of Debian packages (yes, I'm using
Debian instead of a Red Hat variant these days) and documentation
or is there a need for something else?
