We in Osnabrück have an LGPL licensed alternative too [1], but I did not
mention it in this context as we use a different technology stack
(Windows) and our project is not complete in features yet (no scheduling
i.e.) and not as mature as the Galicaster.
And maybe even other open source options may appear in the future?

Especially Teltek's Galicaster is an valid alternative to the

works on very similar hardware.
I'd agree with this statement. When we were looking at capture agents
we either wanted an off the self product for simplicity or something
we could customise to our environment. We ended up going for
customisation and Galicaster vs the reference agent didn't even get
off the paper stage. Galicaster was and is evolving so much more
rapidly, it's a bit more user friendly to noobs and seems to have a
much more active community.
That said I'm wondering how Teltek would feel about being the only
future FOSS offering on the capture agent seen?
