Because ntpviz is now working and documented, I removed a pretty large volume of crufty ancient scripts for postprocessing statfiles from util/ and util/stats this morning. I will be astonished if anyone misses them. I merged the documentation under util/stats into docs/, where it should have been in the first place.
Being able to do this was a pretty major victory for the maintainability of the codebase, cutting down the number of languages we have to worry about by 2 - awk and S. Eventually Perl will also be banished, leaving Python and sh as the only scripting languages in place. At which point I will be looking hard at getting rid of sh. This does, however, leave me with a question: How are we doing pruning of statfiles at this point? I seem to recall someone who is not me working on this. The facility, whatever it is, needs to be documented. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
