 NEW FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS:

-* Added support for monitoring processes without pidfile using pattern  
matching.
-  You can use POSIX regular expressions or full strings matching process  
name
-  with arguments as provided by the 'ps' utility. If the pattern matches
-  multiple processes, the first match is used. Example:
-      check process debian  
matching "/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-vmx .*deb.vmx"

 * Added support for swap monitoring. Example:
       check system myserver
           if swap usage > 25% then alert

-* Allow to override the default action when service doesn't exist. The  
default
-  action is restart, it can be customized with following statement:
-      if [does] not exist [[<x> times within] <y> cycles] then <action1>
-
-* Monit automatically registers credentials with M/Monit now, so it's not
-  necessary to set it manually in M/Monit anymore. To disable credentials
-  registration:

          and register without credentials

 * The 'check system' can now use start/stop program statements too.

 * Added the option to set the "Reply-To" mail header in mail-format.

 BUGFIXES:

-* Show real process uptime - formerly the presented uptime was based on  
create
-  and modify timestamp of process' pidfile which provides invalid uptime  
if the
-  pidfile is replaced and process keeps running with original PID. Thanks  
to
-  Nima Chavooshi for report.
-
-* When user triggered action for some service (such as stop) and before  
that
-  action completed user triggered another action for the same service  
(such as
-  start), the second action has been ignored. Monit will not accept new  
action
-  and return temporary error until the previous action completed.
-
-* If process resource usage gathering failed, retry next cycle as the  
error can
-  be temporary.

-* M/Monit heartbeat is fully independent of testing cycle now to prevent

 * Service name:
      - allow the service name to start with "/"
-     - fixed handling of the service names which contain "/" in the name  
in Monit
-       web interface. Thanks to Artyom Khafizov for patch.

-* When 'check system' is not defined, monit adds it automatically using  
hostname
-  for service name. If existing service was defined with the same service  
name
-  (matching hostname), monit didn't added the entry and reported confusing  
error
-  message pointing to the end of configuration file. Thanks to Thorsten

-
-* Remove extra NL characters from message when resource succeeded event is  
sent.
-  The extra NL character may break the mail headers. Thanks to Hanno Boeck  
for

-
-* Fixed display of cpu user/system/wait usage which temporarily displayed  
-1.0%
-  between two monitoring cycles while cpu monitoring was initializing.
