I'm in a similar boat and specifically need my UI to support views (BIND's answer to split-horizon DNS). It looks to me like nictool also has no concept of views...:(
My initial thought was the same, but then... it seems to me that there is a holy shit opportunity here.
I have been struggling (with some progress) to learn to play the guitar for years.... Imagine this system: I put on headphones and air guitar to my favorite tunes for a few hours while the computer LEARNS how *I* play... blam-o! Then I can just start jamming/getting creative without ever having learned the instrument!!!
I too am mesmerized by this phenomena. An auto-refreshing web page of HYPERLINKS gives the exact same results !?!?!? Yes, the sources would have to maintain some sort of valid link structure, but the same issue exists for RSS.
Actually, a much bigger score at this point would be an *exchange server* replacement. Outlook IS a terrible app, but that is completely irrelevant. Users want it. Period. They insist upon it. Fine. Let me run an open server on the back-end that let's Outlook run like it's talking to AD/Exchange/Wins/Project Server/every freakin required MS app we pay big $$$ for now.
Am I the only one with ipsec headaches? The only machine I don't have on 2.6(yet) is my firewall. I have several net-to-net VPNs ala freeswan. The 2.6 kernel includes a kame-based ipsec stack. Efforts to cram the freeswan stack in fail, although the docs say it's possible. I'm pretty sure I can convert to the kame stack, but it's not a trivial task. Other than that, 2.6 r0cks!

I haven't evaluated it yet, but here's another option: http://www.menandmice.com/
Can anyone comment on the Men&Mice suite?

Same here. ROCK SOLID 2.5.72. I haven't had any glitches since 2.5.39. :) The performance boost over 2.4 is quite noticable too.
