True words.

@Alessandro:
If you are able to group responsibilities in the mind of nagios
contagroups like:

All Disk checks should be notified to contactgroup ABC and all xy checks
to another group, you could give check_multi a try.
It's a realy nice hack resulting in fewer plugin calls by grouping real
plugins. One plugin to many so far.
