 Hi,

 Maybe I'm the only one on Earth who still does this.

 But I'd like to register the admin/s6 package anyway,
and the following names in /command that it provides:

s6-ftrigrd
s6-ftrig-listen1
s6-ftrig-listen
s6-ftrig-notify
s6-ftrig-wait
s6-cleanfifodir
s6-mkfifodir
s6-svscan
s6-supervise
s6-svc
s6-svscanctl
s6-svok
s6-svstat
s6-svwait
s6-envdir
s6-envuidgid
s6-fghack
s6-log
s6-setlock
s6-setsid
s6-setuidgid
s6-softlimit
s6-tai64n
s6-tai64nlocal

 I wanted the "s4" name, but some open source software was released in
October 2010 by Yahoo and uses the name "S4", so - after much cursing -
I decided to avoid potential confusion and register "s6" instead.
 There's no conflict on "s6" as far as I can tell.

 s6 is a software suite that provides:
 - instant notification tools and libraries
 - process supervision tools (without any active waiting), including an
init replacement
 - hooks for higher-level service management.
