Hi,

It's easy to get specific information for specific need but it's probably
more work to pack it into a general tool for every needs. I am not very
positive that there will be lots of such similar needs at this time
(except for "graphical chart for venue server manager" proposed by
SangWoo) to justify the extra work needed to set up such a tool. However,
if you do need such information for your particular venue server, perhaps
I can help.
