pynab - now with sane launching

pynab 1.5.1

Instructions

If you were using upstart to start pynab, you need to delete it and use supervisor instead:

> sudo rm /etc/init/pynab.conf

Follow the instructions in the README to use supervisor. Note that Windows servers cannot use supervisor,
but they couldn't use zdaemon either - so nothing has changed on that front.

New:

• now supports MySQL-like DBMS (MySQL, Maria, Percona)
• now using supervisor instead of zdaemon, which is much more stable and nicer to use
• pre-scraping IRC bot and pre-naming (thanks @brookesy2)
• config sanity checking
• xmpp pubsub support (thanks @bettse)
• much better pynab status monitor using byobu (thanks @AlanKK)

Fixed:

. now much faster to start backfilling
. a lot of stuff
. various bugfixes

Fixed in 1.5.1:

. a couple of COPY bugs that could crash scan fixed
. also caught a couple of backfill bugs
