Ubuntu's Upstart
I really liked this.
"upstart is a replacement for the init daemon, the process spawned by the kernel that is responsible for starting, supervising and stopping all other processes on the system."
"upstart is an event-based init daemon; events generated by the system cause jobs to be started and running jobs to be stopped. Events can include things such as:
* the system has started,
* the root filesystem is now writable,
* a block device has been added to the system,
* a filesystem has been mounted,
* at a certain time or repeated time period,
* another job has begun running or has finished,
* a file on the disk has been modified,
* there are files in a queue directory,
* a network device has been detected,
* the default route has been added or removed."
