Branches (1)-(3) inclusive are now in the Natty archive as Upstart
version 0.9.0-1ubuntu3.

I have now documented Scotts socket bridge branch with 2 new man pages
(not yet released) and the requisite .conf file. These can go in the
next update.

I have now completed tests for Branch (4). Plan now is to:

- Merge this into the ubuntu Upstart branch.
- Update the PPA (https://launchpad.net/~jamesodhunt/+archive/upstart-testing) 
as soon as possible
  to give users a chance to try the new features.
- Propose it for merging on Monday 7 March.

What remains:

1) documenting Branch (2)
    This is in progress.

2) Writing test code for branches (1) and (2)
    Also in progress.

At this stage, my feeling is that *comprehensive* and automated test
code for Branches (1) and (2) probably won't be finished by 7 March
since:

a) the Upstart test framework doesn't have infrastructure to cope with 
reconfiguring dbus (required to re-enable the session support).
b) there are rather too many scenarios to code in the time remaining.
c) the Upstart test framework is going to have to be strained to handle the 
socket bridge daemon.

That said, we should be able to produce a minimal set of tests (possibly
manual) for Monday with a view to adding in the remaining tests as soon
as possible after that date.
