It does some things the wrong way, in a way that caused data loss on Canonical's servers when they deployed it. I will rework and add an improved script ASAP (maybe late December). The point why I did not see it as that critical is that most extended features that users desired (like autosave directory, script dir and stuff) are not sensible to use when sobby is run as a service. (I.e. it should not be run as root, but I don't know if nobody's an option neither.) So it works perfectly well when started as a user, deploying it as a service just needs some more thoughts and maybe improvements in the software. Kind regards, Philipp Kern -- .''`.
