It's time for This Week in OpenNMS!

Last week we fixed the Android Compass crash, did more work on OpenNMS
proxy, daemon, link, and collection infrastructure, and fixed a number
of issues with the OpenNMS Docker images. We also worked on a number of
web UI improvements.


    <#github-project-updates>Github Project Updates

  *

    *Internals, APIs, and Documentation*

      o Sebastian fixed the daemon tools to always produce success and
        failure events.
      o Dustin continued his work on single-port flow support.
      o Chandra fixed the |collections:collect| command to support
        setting the TTL on minions.
      o David worked on documentation for the new situation feedback UI.
      o Patrick did more work on unified HTTP proxy support for monitors
        and such.
      o Christian did some work on getting OpenNMS builds working with
        newer JDKs.
      o Jan Papež fixed a bug in our Docker container image, where the
        database name was not properly configured if your database
        wasn't called |opennms|. Images for 22.0.4 and higher should
        contain the fix.
      o |opennms-plugin-protocol-cifs| was added to the default Docker
        image in 22.0.4 and higher.
  *

    *Web & UI*

      o Patrick worked on fixing the "change icon" feature in the
        topology UI.
      o For users with sufficient rights, Christian added support for
        linking from the node page to the relevant requisition editor page.
      o Antonio worked on refactoring Enlinkd and topology code.


    <#compass-321>Compass 3.2.1

OpenNMS Compass, the OpenNMS mobile app, was updated to version 3.2.1
<https://compass.opennms.io/>. This version fixes the crash-on-launch
bug when running on Android 8 (Oreo) and higher, as well as adding
support for setting a timeout for slow connections or OpenNMS servers.


    <#hacktoberfest-2018>Hacktoberfest 2018

    *OSMC 2018 Talk and Hackathon - November 5th through 8th, 2018
    <https://osmc.de/>*

    Tarus will be speaking on Tuesday, November 6th
    <https://osmc.de/schedule/> about the latest features in OpenNMS
    including Minions, Telemetryd (flow support), Sextant (alarm
    correlation), and more.

    Also, some OpenNMS folks will be participating in the OSMC hackathon
    <https://osmc.de/hackathon/>. The hackathon will be on Thursday,
    November 8th and includes dinner Wednesday night and Thursday
    access. More details can be found at the OpenNMS OSMC Hackathon
