The master worker keeps the status for workers even after they are
dead, because in most cases it is useful to be able to query a
worker's status once it has died.
This is a little clumsy, but you can write your method like this instead:
def worker_alive?
!(MiddleMan.all_worker_info.detect{|worker| worker[:status] ==
:running && worker[:worker] == :xmpp_worker }.nil?)
end
As far as I can see all_worker_info only returns currently running
workers, so probably the check for :status == :running is redundant.
