Am I right in assuming that the issue is that devd forwards ALL events to a client now, and the limitation is that we cannot specify a filter ? Or there is something else more deep and fundamental ? I am planning to use devd for a inhouse tool. >> though hopefully will appearat some point in the 11.x series. There are a lot of daemons IMO which would benefit from a tighter integration with devd, and abolishment of glue scripts or programs between devd and clients is desirable IMO. Fingers crossed.
