The statusmap is being worked on separately. We'll be integrating a
recent version of NagVis, which supports our database backend system
Merlin. It has been much enhanced by a team of op5 developers to work
with flash and the googlemaps API, so things should run smoothly and
be a lot easier to get a good overview with than the old statusmap,
which never scaled too well to anything beyond 100 hosts or so.

We have various other maps that our customers use in addition to the
regular statusmap. I don't know when (or even if) those maps will be
integrated into Ninja.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
