  Description     : Python module for writing system daemons

 The daemonize module provides a simple class (Daemonize) that
 handles forking a sub-fraction of your Python script to background.
 .
 It takes care of:
    - changing the applications directory to '/'
    - setting umask 0027 for root daemons
    - creating a locked PID file
    - closing open file descriptors
    - removing PID file on daemon exit
    - handling SIGTERM signals
    - logging daemon actions to /dev/lo
