zzz is a project to subvert the _(Unix) daemon infrastructure bit by bit.

The idea is to provide an infrastructure for queueing and scheduling robust persistent continuations of a lisp dialect on top of posix.

_(A post in the Mailing Lists |http://lists.tunes.org/archives/tunes/2002-April/003375.html) by _(Fare) provides miscellaneous ideas on the design of a future version of zzz.

The current plan is to use, extend and port the _(Tube),
and provide services based on it.
Initial services will be a robust job scheduler (replacing at),
then to replace cron/anacron, inetd, etc.
Ask _(jao) about it.

Notes: at first, get the Tube to work in a current _(Bigloo|http://cliki.tunes.org/Scheme#bigloo) or _(MzScheme|http://cliki.tunes.org/Scheme#mzscheme), and try the concepts. Then, consider porting to _(Common Lisp): first by _(metaprogramming) _(Scheme) into _(CL|Common Lisp) <span class="comment">[Note that there is a _(Scheme) to _(CL|Common Lisp) converter, _(scm2cl|http://cliki.tunes.org/Scheme#scm2cl) -- _(MaD70)]</span>, then by _(metaprogramming) _(CL|Common Lisp) into _(CL|Common Lisp) (probably based on _(Screamer)).
