Version?

That's too long for a short a description

(...)

This description does not describe what Zenoss does, how it compares to other
OSS monitoring or management systems (like Nagios, Cheops, Cacti, Mrtg, Rddtool...)
it also should *not* include names of propietary products since that does not
help people that do not know them to determine what Zenoss actually does.

Please state facts and features, that description is pure maketing b******t.
Please, re-read the Developer's Reference, "6.2.1 General guidelines for
package descriptions" available at
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-desc-basics
