[announce] perp-2.04: persistent process supervision

[Wayne Marshall]

Announcing the latest release of perp, a persistent process
supervisor:

 http://b0llix.net/perp/distfiles/perp-2.04.tar.gz


What's New (yawn...):

The 2.04 release adds the runchoom(8) utility:

 http://b0llix.net/perp/site.cgi?page=runchoom.8

The runchoom utility is now installed in the standard perpboot(8)
runscript, providing linux "oom killer" abatement on perpd(8)
and all its services.


About (snore...):

perp is a service supervisor similar in purpose to the venerable
daemontools package, providing a modern update with many
advantages:

 * easy configuration: in place service activation and no
   symlinks!

 * everthing administered in /etc/perp

 * fully FHS compatible

 * scanner/supervisor/controller runs as a single process

 * all context switching for multiple supervisor processes is
   eliminated

 * service reset capability

 * pretty good troff -man documentation

 * colorized(!) service lister, readable timestamps...

 * no slashpackage, no slashcommand, no slashdoc...
