741710c27c use exit code 3 for version and help
Plugins which use OK state for help or version information may run
unnoticed in that modes without doing any check. So its good
style to let version and help exit with Unknown state.

Monitoring Plugins Development Team
63734f52ab Project rename initial commit.
This is an initial take at renaming the project to Monitoring Plugins.
It's not expected to be fully complete, and it is expected to break
things (The perl module for instance). More testing will be required
before this goes mainline.

c542ca9136 developer-guidelines.sgml: Allow special value "U"
Allow a literal "U" to be specified in place of an actual value within
the performance data string.  An "U" corresponds to RRDtool's "UNKNOWN"
value; i.e., it's meant to indicate that data acquisition failed for
some reason.  PNP4Nagios already supports this extension.

d7f7cfe8d2 Description for table4 example7
My original patch was based on the online version which was apparently out of date.

In the meantime someone changed the description of example7 instead of the example. I think this is better because
otherwise example 6 and 7 are basically the same.

4e9de7da20 Bugfix, fixed a broken command-line example
The last example in the table contradicted the previous example. Surely
it's purpose was to showcase the @ behaviour to invert threshold, but the
@ sign was missing.

I also clarified the description to the second last example so it is in same
style as the others.

b6362e9cf5 Talk about Git instead of CVS
Update the Developer Guidelines to reflect the fact that our development
is done using Git instead of CVS these days (as noted by Chris Pepper on
the "nagiosplug-devel" list).

While at it, apply another few minor cleanups.

cfbc87b2d3 Remove comments regarding former requirements
Don't explain why Libtool and Gettext are no longer needed.  Libtool
actually is a requirement, as (at least) the M4 macros provided by
Libtool are needed for our Autotools setup.  And the fact that Gettext
is no longer needed probably isn't that interesting for new developers.
