[smokeping-users] SmokeTrace 2.0

[Tobias Oetiker]

Users,

there has not been a smokeping release in quite some time. The
reason for this is that I am turning smoketrace into a
stand-alone-application.

the re-writing was total, none of the original code remains ...

Smoketrace has become a generic frontend for tools with table-like
output. To integrate a tool, you just have to provide a plugin on
the server side ... the rest is automagic.

I am not yet entirely happy with the plugin interface, it will take
a few more days to get this in order, but if you are interested in
what is to come, have a look at:

 http://tobi.oetiker.ch/test/smoketrace/build/#ACT=RUN;PLG=TraceRoute;host=www.caida.org;rounds=10;interval=2;method=default

note that the cool canvas graphis effects will only be visible on
standard conformant webbrowsers (chrome, ff, opera, safari). I will
try getting this to work on ie using excanvas.js ... I have not
tried yet.

cheers
tobi
