We are already plagued by a large number of (mostly unnecessary!) daemons (i don't remember on top of my head how many exactly, but it's a 2 digits figure) that have trickled over the years in the standard stack. The metacrawler is a good example of why you don't want to write a daemon. To write a daemon is to ask for trouble since your sw will use memory, cpu time and power all the time. Also bugs will be more critical. What's wrong with something that runs on-demand? Unless you rely on having dbus to start and stop the service ... that would probably be ok. -- Cheers, Igor Igor Stoppa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Nokia Multimedia - CP - OSSO / Helsinki, Finland) _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
