mbieblKeybuk: hi, how's work going on upstart?11:42
mbieblI guess you are pretty busy atm with the upcoming release11:42
Keybukmbiebl: still blocking on working out what direction to tak eit11:51
mbieblWhy not implement some non-controversial stuff first.11:52
Keybuksuch as?11:52
mbieblI'd love to see pid file monitoring e.g.11:52
Keybukbut you wouldn't get to see it for a while11:54
Keybuksince the rest of the code is in an intermediate state11:54
mbieblwhat about branching off from 0.3.8 for that?11:56
mbieblIIRC also stuff like umask, chroot etc. is not implemented yet. 11:56
Keybukthat stuff's always been implemented11:56
mbieblah sorry, I mixed it up with an option to run the job as a different user...11:57
Keybukthat's never going to be implemented :p11:57
mbiebllol11:58
Keybukthe closest to that planned is having users other than root own jobs11:58
Keybuk(and having them listen in on that user's and root's events)11:58
Keybukthe problem at the moment for me is until I've decided what to do with Upstart, I don't really have much motivation to work on it12:01
mbieblSo an option like start-stop-daemons --chuid won't be in upstart. Would have been handy because some sysv init scripts seems to use that functionality12:01
Keybukmbiebl: exec su user -c ...12:01
mbieblyeah, but a separate chuid stanza for that would be "nicer". 12:03
Keybukreimplementing all of su in upstart is "nicer" ?12:05
Keybukmbiebl: what are your thoughts on the mail I sent to upstart-devel?12:06
mbieblI'll have to read it again first.12:06
mbieblI can't promise though, that I can contribute something useful to the discussion which will help you :-)12:09
mbieblAnother area, upstart is currently lacking imho, is a flexible output/logging system.12:12

mbieblMight be worth looking at. What was the outcome of the logd issue? 12:20
mbieblIs something like syslog-ng an valuable alternative for that?12:20
Keybukmaybe12:25
KeybukI haven't looked into it12:25
