This is the README.  READ IT!

Nagios::Object is a group of modules for parsing a Nagios configuration and
representing it as objects in perl.  Inheriting from templates is supported,
encoraged, and kept intact within the perl representation(s).
This is still a very early release, so not all of the methods you'll need
are implemented yet.  Coming soon to a CPAN mirror near you.  Send me your
ideas and it may happen sooner.

Installation:

  If you don't have Module::Build installed, you'll have to install it before
you can use this module's installer.  That is the only dependency in this
module.  No, I won't add Make::MakeMaker support.  The easiest way to install
Module::Build is to do "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Module::Build'".
 
  perl Build.PL
  ./Build
  ./Build test
  ./Build install

Bug Reports:

  Send all bug reports to myself <tobeya@cpan.org>.  In any bug report,
include a short description of your problem, and a copy of the output
from "Build test."  The more diagnostic information you send, the better.

Sending me a test script/offending code will probably get your issue fixed
fastest and as a bonus, help prevent me from breaking it again in the future.

ChangeLog:

0.01 - initial release
0.03 - same as 0.01, but with higher version number to trump Nagios::Config on CPAN.
0.04 - a bunch of internal updates, nothing really new on the API side yet
0.05 - Lots of stuff all over.  A bunch of bugs were fixed and I started looking at performance.
       I'm actually writing some serious apps using these modules now, so the "dogfood test" is
       really starting to kick in.
       Thanks to the following people for patches/bug reports:
