Original Post: Write Supervisor Code for GSoC

Feed Description: Hang on to your processes
I’ve signed up as a mentor representing the Python Software Foundation in Google’s Summer of Code project. I’m hoping that the PSF/Google sees fit to approve applications from students who are interested in working on the Supervisor UNIX process controller. I’ve already heard from interested fellow who plans to submit a proposal to do tab completion in supervisorctl and to create an “fg” command that will allow supervisorctl users to attach to and talk to running programs.
Other interesting things might be:
create a “multi-supervisor” dashboard, where you could easily see information about many running supervisors (and the processes which they control) on one web page
create and document common-UNIX-variant rc.d scripts for supervisor start at system boot
If you’re a student that wants to participate in GSoC and you’re interested in UNIX process control and Python, please send me an email. Other feature suggestions welcome.
