although this is approved, just for reference, I had gotten a chance to
test this patch as I agreed to.
the info I was meant to supply is:
on start up, nagios reads retention data, in this process it calculates
from state history if the service is flapping, if the service is
calculated to be flapping, and according to retention data this service
was not flapping, a notification is sent out. if the service is
calculated to be flapping, and according to the retention data this
service was already flapping, a notification is not sent.
previous behavior didn't send a notification at any condition, this
behavior was changed.
