Jeremy keeps complaining because we don't daemonize. We've discussed this
several times at great length, but it seems the fact that we don't is a
real concern.
One possibility is to add a section to the documentation explaining how to
run as a daemon, for example:
{{{
$ nohup bind10 &> /dev/null &
}}}
Another possibility is for the rest of the BIND 10 team to hold me down
and just implement a daemon mode while I can't stop them. Were this to
happen, we should probably use the mechanism proposed in PEP 3143:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3143/
Which will likely become a part of standard Python soonish. (For now, we
can just ship the python-daemon library with our code.)
