Activities planned for May/July 2010
-
remove getRequiredArguments() from all checkers (it is never called, and just confuses anyone who works on the code) (done)
replace timeoutsocket.py with builtin standard Python socket methods settimeout() and makefile('r+') (done)
remove core.py (which is no longer used) (done)
make .descr parser a little more robust (it doesn't handle empty arguments (like 'args=')
write a new checkservice?
remove duplicate code from http/https checkers (done)
