As I am the only active developer on the daemonic project ATM, I'm about to add xinetd support to it as well as make it more start-stop daemon compatible, in this I'd like to add two things to it, #1 I'd like to make use of the debian /etc/default style options for easy options changes for startup items, #2 I'd like to add an /etc/xinetd.d directory, and daemonic will check the /etc/xinetd.conf to make sure it's added every time it's run.

my questions are this, are there any objections to these? or comments/additions to it? and for the start-stop daemon functions I've been using a /tmp/.daemonic dir to store pids, I'd like to change this to only make a daemonic pid if the program it's self doesn't make one, so in the daemonic script portion of the fink info file, it'll only use /tmp/.daemonic if the pidfile option isn't present.

the version in my experimental dir it's 100% yet but it does enable start,stop,restart and has a more complete startup script system. Please try them and let me know how they work.

examples:
  sudo daemonic start <daemon>
  or
  sudo daemonic stop <daemon>
