Bring It On
by smooved

System service, if you have any question in your mind as to whether I can satisfy you, bring your requirements to me now.

smooved will satisfy you.

Bring it on to me, and I will do you like nobody can. I will publish your services for you like nobody can. I will provide an auxilary process in which to run these services like nobody can.

I am ready for you now.

Lay your requirements down, and I will show you what makes smooved the only process you need. I will call into your plug-in and obtain a top level GHandler. I will provide your GHandler with only the finest BMessages from the farthest reaches of the system. Then, I will allow your handler to register itself as providing a particular type of service.

We will be launched at boot time. You and I.

All you have to do is tell me what to do and when to stop. And I promise, you will not want it to stop until the power is cycled. Bring your services to me now, and I will show you an ease of integration that you have never known. I will provide your services at a level of availability that no other daemon could ever do.

Damn.

Your plug-in will be loaded into only the most stable, persistent environment. If you have an application which needs backend services, such as a smart card reader or automounter, I will work your backend like it has never been worked.

I will also provide a settings module.

Aw, please, system service. Bring your functionality to me, and I will show you that my architecture is strong. You will ride me all day and all night and will never want to stop.

Baby, I want your plug-ins right now. Give it up to smooved.

I am the daemon of your dreams and desires. I will satisfy you, if only you would allow me the pleasure. I will swear on my honor as a system server that I will do you right until the morning light. I will fulfill your every wish. And I will use locking if necessary.

So, in conclusion, let me summarize by saying that I will load your plug-in and work your backend, then I will feed you BMessages of every kind and variety, and my architecture is strong.

Bring it on.
