I'd like a compromise. Have one daemon that polls & generates events. It=20
provides a local service, and other programs ask it to tell them when a=20
sensor gets too high or too low. That way we don't have polling in the=20
kernel, yet we don't have every single program that's interested in=20
something having to do its own polling.

Take care,

Bill
