Calendar of Events
April Releases - April 7th, 2020
The next OpenNMS release day is April 7th, 2020.
Unless we run into major issues, we're hoping to release Horizon 26 in April, which, among other things, includes support for BMP telemetry collection.
There will also be updates to all active Meridian releases.
Until Next Week…
