Differences between revisions 10 and 11

My name is James Hunt, and I work for Canonical as a member of the FoundationsTeam working on Upstart and other early-boot and plumbing technologies.

Made significant progress on:
- https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-o-upstart-for-admins/
- Bug 328881: implementation of Job logging for Upstart (complicated by need to support user jobs).

Upstart
- Added Debug stanza (not documented).
- Added Manual stanza.
- Added Override File support.
- Wrote Upstart bash-completion script.
- Implemented initctl show-config and initctl check-config commands (see man page.
- Wrote init-checkconf(8).
- Wrote initctl2dot(8).
- Wrote comprehensive upstart-events(7) manual page.
- Improved unit/functional tests by adding ability to run "init" and "initctl" directly.
- Co-authored the "Upstart Cookbook" (currently Draft):
  - http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/
Byobu
- Wrote /usr/lib/byobu/time_binary.
- Wrote /usr/bin/byobu-ulevel.
- Wrote /usr/bin/byobu-ugraph.
Miscellaneous
- Wrote Plymouth wiki page.
- Wrote Section 0 of UDD GettingTheSource page.
- Wrote clone tool (similar to unshare(1)).

Bug 771372: required taking a holistic approach and seeing the real problem, not just patching the very particular problem reported.
Bug 829980: required tracing the problem through Upstart's udev bridge, D-Bus, udev and the kernel. Identified fact that udev is not fully specified (precise format of data is not defined).
