Actually the old Nagios Plugins Development Team was required to rename their project due to the fact that Nagios Enterprises hijacked the DNS and website and kicked them out.

Whilst the original memebers are now known as 'Monitoring Plugins Development Team', the newly formed 'Nagios Core Plugin Development Team' is actually providing a fork of their work under the old name.

For any clarifications required, you should follow the discussion here: https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/archive/devel/2014-January/009417.html

Imho the official former nagios plugins are now provided by the same developers under a new URL and that should be reflected for any future updates.

Though, I'm leaving that to you who to trust here. I'm just a community member appreciating the work done by the original Nagios Plugins Development team, accepting their origin and the fact that there's no censorship of Icinga, Shinken or Naemon (as Nagios forks) needed.
