I cannot speak to the quality of code; I couldn't code my way out of
a wet paper bag and am horribly unqualified to comment.
However, this is a majority of my job where I am now, and I don't
dislike it. It's infinitely extensible, makes it simple to write
plugins for stuff that you can't already find one for, and has a
fairly large community.
It's a *helluva* lot better than Mon or Big Brother, both of which
I've used in the past, and both of which made me weep tears of
blood.
