Michel Rasschaert <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: Bothans
System name: bothans
Type: non-GNU

Description:
This project will be a monitoring system in the spirit of Nagios 
(http://nagios.org/) but It will focus on :
- Ease of installation (especially adding new monitored systems should be near 
plug\'n play).
- Multi-user capabilities (so a group of user could administrate some machines 
and view the status of others but not all)
- Distributable : It will be possible to have multiple servers who will 
auto-organise themselves
- Will use XML : for the buzzword effect ;) and for extensibility of the 
protocol too.
- Multi platform : will run on GNU/Linux but also on Windows, *BSD and several 
Commercial Unixes.

Current state (not functional) :
