I did update my wiki spec draft based on all comments on the mail list (last change was to make supporting any keyword optional i.e. plugin writers can pick and choose what to support which is what it always has been in nagios and current spec).

They have't got back to me yet (only sent email on Friday) but this is not a formal session and so I'd not expect an issue with holding it after normal sessions are over. My own plugins library and several plugins will support the syntax at <a href="https://github.com/willixix/nagios-plugins/wiki/New-Threshold-Syntax" target="_blank">https://github.com/willixix/nagios-plugins/wiki/New-Threshold-Syntax</a> by conference time (just committed most of the necessary code yesterday). I hope that as independent library authors move in to this syntax, the official plugins can too although I totally understand about the manpower in the open-source effort. Still I'd like to see it a a future long-term goal to support this.

We (the Plugins Development Team) discussed this internally, but we haven't really reached a consensus on how to proceed. Some concerns have been raised regarding the added complexity and the amount of refactoring necessary to check only for specified thresholds. Either way, I guess we must acknowledge that we currently lack the manpower to implement a new threshold syntax, which means we'll probably stick to the current syntax for the time being. So I'd say yes: Please move ahead independently of us. Personally I quite like the new syntax, and if you settled on the details and it works well for you, we can still decide on whether and how to adopt it :-) Thanks a lot for your work on this!
