Re: OS X StartupItems v.s. BSD daemon...

I'm need to write a startupitem or daemon which manages a pool of processes. It would be responsible for launching, monitoring, and killing processes in the pool. It seems that this could easily be implemented as an OS X StartupItem. But I'm looking for some guidelines as to when to use StartupItems v.s. a daemon process. Can anyone give me some feedback or point me at a document?

As StartupItems may eventually and potentially get - but that's not sure - deprecated in the future, it's difficult to say.
