[rrd-developers] a portable rrd format

[Tobias Oetiker]

Greetings,

On the list for new rrdtool features there is also a new
architecture independant rrd format. I have done some research
today, and found two things.

* XDR is probably NOT the solution

* Rolling our own should not be all that difficult.

I have created a little writeup on

http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/PortableRrdFormat

I did only research x86, SPARC and PPC, if someone can fill in the
blanks on Itanium, PA-RISC and MIPS, this would be great and very
Wiki!

cheers
tobi
