Folks --

I'm walking through Xend and am having trouble figuring out where new commands that come in from xm via the UnixHttp interface are actually parsed and run. There are sort of three ways to tackle this.

First: Is there any documentation that explains the inner workings of xend?

Second: Is there an obvious way to convert SrvDaemon.start() to not fork so that I can run Xend on top of pdb?

Third: Is there a Python debugger that allows me to connect to a running application?

Any pointers to do any of the above would be welcome.

-- Randy
