I think ideally Proc::Daemon should be extended to cover all
common functionality, and Net::Daemon updated to extend
Proc::Daemon. That assumes reasonably compatible APIs of course,
or one might possibly support both API styles in both modules if
they are disparate -- so long as it doesn't break backward
compatibility. Of course you shouldn't hesitate to copy stuff
back from Net::Daemon to Proc::Daemon if desirable.
At least, that's how it would work in an ideal world in the
abstract. I haven't looked at the modules, it might not be
feasible at all. Even if it is it would also require cooperation
of three authors -- a difficult task.
