If you'd like to listen to an audio session with the project leads, both 
Zenoss and OpenNMS have been featured on the FLOSS Weekly podcast 
(http://twit.tv/floss).  Zenoss is session 124 (very recent) and OpenNMS 
was session 15 which is a bit dated but these discussions aren't 
particularly technical - but they give you a feeling for the philosophy 
of the projects, where they are headed, who uses them, and how they mesh 
their commercial and opensource aspects.

I happen to have a long commute and play stuff like this on the way...
