[Zope-dev] Simplifying the zdaemon package

[Guido van Rossum]

The zdaemon package contains a bunch of dead wood, or "decoys", as Jim
would call it, that I'd like to remove.  AFAICT, Heartbeat.py is not
used anywhere.  At least not in the Zope sources -- maybe there are
outside users???  And ZDaemonLogging.py is a very thin layer on top of
zLOG -- can I get rid of it too?

The SignalHandler.py class is not used by zdaemon itself; perhaps it
can be moved into the Signals package?
