Hello, I've read about the upstart project some time ago, and read the webpage and installed it on my LinuxFromScratch machine.
I think it's a very good idea to develop a system which executes programs and runds scripts, with dependencies. I work a lot with session scripts (scripts which are started when a session begins, and scripts which are run when they end) , and scripts which should run periodically only during a session for a user, and fcron does not have this feature. Now I use a construction using the ConsoleKit daemon, which is able to run scripts (by root) when a sessions is added and when it is removed. An example is the mounting of a fuse module (fuse-workspace) I've developed, and network access with help of the automounter, which is also exclusiv for this user/session. See: http://linux.bononline.nl/linux/fuse-workspace/index.php Are you also planning to add this feature to upstart?? Or is it already possible to do this?? I cannot find an event name for "session added" and "session removed"... Futher, I've installed the newest upstart package (0.6.3) and found out that the /etc/event.d directory is not used anymore, I had to create the tty.conf files myself....It would be much better when there is documentation about this.
