This Week in OpenNMS: July 9th, 2018

It's time for This Week in OpenNMS!

We were off for part of last week for the 4th of July holiday, so we're
back with a very special 2-week TWiO.

    *Internals, APIs, and Documentation*

      o Jesse and David continued their work on a next-generation Alarmd
        (codename: Sextant) with full rules-based workflow management.
      o Markus did more work on the Sentinel container, validating Kafka
        communication and adding documentation.
      o Patrick worked on fixing varbind matching validation in the
        config tester.
      o Craig worked on more enhancements to the plugin manager.
      o Malatesh added some coverage to the eventd configuration tests.
      o Jeff did more work on his proof-of-concept ServiceNow ticketer
        plugin.
      o I fixed some issues with the pl/pgsql version of IPLIKE not
        matching the C behavior.
      o Ronny did more work streamlining documentation.
      o Ronny fixed a regression in certain MIB2 interface data not
        being collected by default.
      o Chandra did more work on support for RPC over Kafka.
  *

    *Web & UI*

      o I finished my fixes for web asset loading (most noticeably, the
        heatmap on the front page).
      o Antonio has been working on fixing the topology UI showing
        enlinkd links properly.
      o Patrick worked on changes to make dates in the web UI
        consistent, and also configurable.
