This is a follow-up on earlier postings:

any plan to write the tool in other language, not Java? i guess not
many people (include me) are willing to install Java on their system.

Hmmm. I have the same complaint about Python. I tend to like anything that can be compiled into a more or less standalone binary. The current Python tools have a whole chain of dependancies and I often find that this kind of thing ends up leaving me in a situation where I have conflicting dependancies. I just love staicaly compiled binaries or somthing that at most requires the libraries you get with a stock libc install.

I have not looked at the sHype tools but it may be that they can be compiled with gcj and turned into a static binary.


since python is used in xen, i  think it is a good candidate.

i will play with the code and give some feedbacks.

regards,
aq
