This Week in OpenNMS: September 18th, 2017

It's time for This Week in OpenNMS!

Last week was more development work on JTI support, wrapping up of Helm,
and prepping for Meridian 2017 and a new Horizon release.

    *Internals, APIs, and Documentation*

      o Seth and I worked on fixing logging in the remote poller.
      o Jesse and Chandra worked on implementing JTI stream data collection.
      o Jesse fixed location-handling in newSuspect events.
      o Christian worked on fixing some import errors in the VMware adapter.
      o Ronny worked on migrating docs to AsciiBinder for rendering.
      o Jesse fixed a potential resource leak caused by SNMP sessions
        that fail.
  *

    *Web and UI*

      o I cleaned up a bunch of hardcoded/bad values in various CSS themes.
      o Jesse fixed the "quick add node" button in the provisioning UI.
      o I fixed the BSM admin page to give a visual indication when the
        user triggers a config reload.


    <#meridian-2017-and-horizon-2010-coming-soon>Meridian 2017 and
    Horizon 20.1.0 Coming Soon

Assuming any last blockers are closed out, the plan is to release
Meridian 2017.1.0 this week, as well as an interim Horizon 20 release.

Horizon 21 is not quite ready yet (we still have a number of planned
updates that won't meet this month's release), but we wanted to make
sure a version of Horizon was available that would support the new Helm
plugin for Grafana. Horizon 20.1.0 will be based on Horizon 20, but
contains other ReST work and a few other features that were originally
slated for Horizon 21.
