Jerome,

I actually looked at IsDaZope, and I only went ahead with my own because I
already knew how to 'daemonize' a Perl script, and I was under the
impression that IsDaZope needed an attached console to run on.  Let me know
if I'm wrong, because I'd rather run yours, it seems much more fully
developed than mine!
