The first version of the Owl is available.

Owl is an open source software used to monitor the
connectivity and
the changes of a web page. 

Its creates the MD5sum of each page to be monitored
and regularly (default to 
every 20 min) access the web site to check if the
MD5sum has changed 
and if the connectivity is ok. 

If the site is not responding, an e-mail is sent to
the owner of the 
site (specified in the owlsite.conf file). If the
MD5sum has changed, Owl 
checks which lines changed and send an e-mail
informing what happened to the 
site owner.

One of the features of Owl, is that you can configure
some lines to be
ignored (like the lines that display the date, time
,etc) and it can be 
configured to send the e-mail to more than one user.
