Between the band listening and pig pickin I was able to release a new version of the supervisor2 program. This 2.1 release is a bugfix release, and fixes several important problems. Here's the changelist:

• When supervisord was invoked more than once, and its configuration was set up to use a UNIX domain socket as the HTTP server, the socket file would be erased in error. The symptom of this was that a subsequent invocation of supervisorctl could not find the socket file, so the process could not be controlled (it and all of its subprocesses would need to be killed by hand).
• Close subprocess file descriptors properly when a subprocess exits or otherwise dies. This should result in fewer "too many open files to spawn foo" messages when supervisor is left up for long periods of time.
• When a process was not killable with a "normal" signal at shutdown time, too many "INFO: waiting for x to die" messages would be sent to the log until we ended up killing the process with a SIGKILL. Now a maximum of one every three seconds is sent up until SIGKILL time. Thanks to Ian Bicking.
• Add an assertion: we never want to try to marshal None to XML-RPC callers. Issue 223 in the collector from vgatto indicates that somehow a supervisor XML-RPC method is returning None (which should never happen), but I cannot identify how. Maybe the assertion will give us more clues if it happens again.
• Supervisor would crash when run under Python 2.5 because the xmlrpclib.Transport class in Python 2.5 changed in a backward-incompatible way. Thanks to Eric Westra for the bug report and a fix.
• Tests now pass under Python 2.5.
• Better supervisorctl reporting on stop requests that have a FAILED status.
• Removed duplicated code (readLog/readMainLog), thanks to Mike Naberezny.

I can't thank Chris Calloway, the organizer of the sprint, enough for his generosity while we've been here at Chapel Hill. This was an amazing sprint.
