Anouncing n3n: A fork with improvements and no CLA required #1171

Description

@hamishcoleman

I would like to announce the first stable release of n3n.

This is a fork with different licensing and the aim to remain protocol compatible with n2n.

Since neither of the maintainers of this n2n project have been happy to contribute under the new ntop Contributor License Agreement (CLA), it is unfortunately time to create a fork. See #1156 for some discussion about the license.

It is also important for n2n users to realise that the n2n project appears to be unmaintained - the ntop team have not made any ticket triage or code changes in over six months.

Major improvements since the fork from n2n:

  • Documentation
  • Command line processing simplification
  • Configuration file with clear descriptions and help texts
  • JsonRPC API with built-in web server
  • Significantly improved Debian and Redhat packaging
  • More automated tests and builds
