+        #
+        # "However, as part of the session management system, there are exactly
+        # two cases where SIGHUP is sent on the death of a process:
+        #
+        #    1) When the process that dies is the session leader of a session that
+        #        is attached to a terminal device, SIGHUP is sent to all processes
+        #        in the foreground process group of that terminal device.
+        #    2) When the death of a process causes a process group to become
+        #        orphaned, and one or more processes in the orphaned group are
+        #        stopped, then SIGHUP and SIGCONT are sent to all members of the
+        #        orphaned group." [2]

+        # The first case can be ignored since the child is guaranteed not to have
+        # a controlling terminal.  The second case isn't so easy to dismiss.
+        # The process group is orphaned when the first child terminates and
+        # POSIX.1 requires that every STOPPED process in an orphaned process
+        # group be sent a SIGHUP signal followed by a SIGCONT signal.  Since the
+        # second child is not STOPPED though, we can safely forego ignoring the

+BitBake 'Data' implementations
+
+Functions for interacting with the data structure used by the
+BitBake build tools.
+
+The expandData and update_data are the most expensive
+operations. At night the cookie monster came by and
+suggested 'give me cookies on setting the variables and
+things will work out'. Taking this suggestion into account
+applying the skills from the not yet passed 'Entwurf und
+Analyse von Algorithmen' lecture and the cookie
+monster seems to be right. We will track setVar more carefully
+to have faster update_data and expandKeys operations.
+
+This is a treade-off between speed and memory again but
+the speed is more critical here.

+

+    the attributes manually:
+
+     uri = URI("http://example.com/")
+
+     uri = URI()
+     uri.scheme = 'http'
+     uri.hostname = 'example.com'
+     uri.path = '/'
+
+    It has the following attributes:
+
+      * scheme (read/write)
+      * userinfo (authentication information) (read/write)
+        * username (read/write)
+        * password (read/write)
+
+        Note, password is deprecated as of RFC 3986.
+
+      * hostname (read/write)
+      * port (read/write)
+      * hostport (read only)
+        "hostname:port", if both are set, otherwise just "hostname"
+      * path (read/write)
+      * path_quoted (read/write)
+        A URI quoted version of path
+      * params (dict) (read/write)
+      * relative (bool) (read only)
+        True if this is a "relative URI", (e.g. file:foo.diff)
+
+    It stringifies to the URI itself.
+
+    Some notes about relative URIs: while it's specified that
+    a URI beginning with <scheme>:// should either be directly
+    followed by a hostname or a /, the old URI handling of the
+    fetch2 library did not comform to this. Therefore, this URI
+    class has some kludges to make sure that URIs are parsed in
+    a way comforming to bitbake's current usage. This URI class
+    supports the following:
+
+     file:relative/path.diff (IETF compliant)
+     git:relative/path.git (IETF compliant)
+     git:///absolute/path.git (IETF compliant)
+     file:///absolute/path.diff (IETF compliant)
+
+     file://relative/path.diff (not IETF compliant)
+
+    But it does not support the following:
+
+     file://hostname/absolute/path.diff (would be IETF compliant)
+
+    Note that the last case only applies to a list of
+    "whitelisted" schemes (currently only file://), that requires
+    its URIs to not have a network location.

+BitBake 'Fetch' git implementation
+
+git fetcher support the SRC_URI with format of:
+SRC_URI = "git://some.host/somepath;OptionA=xxx;OptionB=xxx;..."
+
+Supported SRC_URI options are:
+
+- branch
+   The git branch to retrieve from. The default is "master"
+
+   This option also supports multiple branch fetching, with branches
+   separated by commas.  In multiple branches case, the name option
+   must have the same number of names to match the branches, which is
+   used to specify the SRC_REV for the branch
+   e.g:
+   SRC_URI="git://some.host/somepath;branch=branchX,branchY;name=nameX,nameY"
+   SRCREV_nameX = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
+   SRCREV_nameY = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"
+
+- tag
+    The git tag to retrieve. The default is "master"
+
+- protocol
+   The method to use to access the repository. Common options are "git",
+   "http", "https", "file", "ssh" and "rsync". The default is "git".
+
+- rebaseable
+   rebaseable indicates that the upstream git repo may rebase in the future,
+   and current revision may disappear from upstream repo. This option will
+   remind fetcher to preserve local cache carefully for future use.
+   The default value is "0", set rebaseable=1 for rebaseable git repo.
+
+- nocheckout
+   Don't checkout source code when unpacking. set this option for the recipe
+   who has its own routine to checkout code.
+   The default is "0", set nocheckout=1 if needed.
+
+- bareclone
+   Create a bare clone of the source code and don't checkout the source code
+   when unpacking. Set this option for the recipe who has its own routine to
+   checkout code and tracking branch requirements.
+   The default is "0", set bareclone=1 if needed.

+BitBake SFTP Fetch implementation
+
+Class for fetching files via SFTP. It tries to adhere to the (now
+expired) IETF Internet Draft for "Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
+Scheme for Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and Secure Shell
+(SSH)" (SECSH URI).
+
+It uses SFTP (as to adhere to the SECSH URI specification). It only
+supports key based authentication, not password. This class, unlike
+the SSH fetcher, does not support fetching a directory tree from the
+remote.
+
+  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04
+  https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/prov/sftp
+  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-13
+
+Please note that '/' is used as host path seperator, and not ":"
+as you may be used to from the scp/sftp commands. You can use a
+~ (tilde) to specify a path relative to your home directory.
+(The /~user/ syntax, for specyfing a path relative to another
+user's home directory is not supported.) Note that the tilde must
+still follow the host path seperator ("/"). See exampels below.
+
+Example SRC_URIs:
+
+SRC_URI = "sftp://host.example.com/dir/path.file.txt"
+
+A path relative to your home directory.
+
+SRC_URI = "sftp://host.example.com/~/dir/path.file.txt"
+
+You can also specify a username (specyfing password in the
+URI is not supported, use SSH keys to authenticate):
+
+SRC_URI = "sftp://user@host.example.com/dir/path.file.txt"

+namedtuple_with_abc.py:
+* named tuple mix-in + ABC (abstract base class) recipe,
+* works under Python 2.6, 2.7 as well as 3.x.
+
+Import this module to patch collections.namedtuple() factory function
+-- enriching it with the 'abc' attribute (an abstract base class + mix-in
+for named tuples) and decorating it with a wrapper that registers each
+newly created named tuple as a subclass of namedtuple.abc.
+
+How to import:
+    import collections, namedtuple_with_abc
+or:
+    import namedtuple_with_abc
+    from collections import namedtuple
+    # ^ in this variant you must import namedtuple function
+    #   *after* importing namedtuple_with_abc module
+or simply:
+    from namedtuple_with_abc import namedtuple
+
+Simple usage example:
+    class Credentials(namedtuple.abc):
+        _fields = 'username password'
+        def __str__(self):
+            return ('{0.__class__.__name__}'
+                    '(username={0.username}, password=...)'.format(self))
+    print(Credentials("alice", "Alice's password"))

+BitBake Shell
+
+IDEAS:
+    * list defined tasks per package
+    * list classes
+    * toggle force
+    * command to reparse just one (or more) bbfile(s)
+    * automatic check if reparsing is necessary (inotify?)
+    * frontend for bb file manipulation
+    * more shell-like features:
+        - output control, i.e. pipe output into grep, sort, etc.
+        - job control, i.e. bring running commands into background and foreground
+    * start parsing in background right after startup
+    * ncurses interface
+
+PROBLEMS:
+    * force doesn't always work
+    * readline completion for commands with more than one parameters
