+ <body>
+ <p>The <tt>relaunchd</tt> project provides a service
+ management daemon that is similar to the original
+ <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Launchd">launchd</a>
+ introduced in Apple OS X.</p>
+
+ <p>It is not limited to the original features of
+ <tt>launchd</tt>, however: interesting work is being done to add
+ support for launching programs in jails, passing socket
+ descriptors from the host to a jail, and launching programs within
+ a preconfigured <tt>capsicum(4)</tt> sandbox. Additionally,
+ <tt>relaunchd</tt> uses UCL for its configuration files, so jobs
+ can be defined in JSON or other formats supported by UCL.</p>
+
+ <p>While there is still work to be done, most of the important
+ features of the original <tt>launchd</tt> have been implemented,
+ and <tt>relaunchd</tt> has been made available in the &os; Ports
+ Collection. It should still be considered experimental and not
+ ready for production use, but everyone is welcome to try it,
+ report issues, and contribute code or ideas for improvement.</p>
