[14:36] <aquarius_> if I do: initctl start mything MYVAR=myvalue, then scripts in mything.conf have access to MYVAR. If a second script, otherthing.conf, has start on started mything then it does _not_ have access to MYVAR. Can you think of a way that it could have that access, other than removing start on started mything and having mything.conf explicitly do initctl start otherthing MYVAR=$MYVAR? That would work but... it seems like I'm doing upstart's job for it, there.
