Is this aimed at systems without intelligent init systems? I'm curious about the motivation. (What this provides seems to be available in systemd and upstart (and maybe others?) out of the box)
I had a recent brush with Daemontools in an embedded setting. Anyone who's messed with qmail back in the day knows who DJB is and what this super minimal thing is. It seems to be good at managing a pile of inter-related services, keeping them running as long as the electrons keep coming, but I don't see the tree concept, or dependency management, in them. They do one thing really well and really tiny.<p><a href="https://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html" rel="nofollow">https://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html</a>
