Hi,

Currently the Shepherd implements activation as lazy start, but we
should add an option for “eager socket activation” where the daemon is
started right away.

Such activation is still useful as a synchronization mechanism: you can
tell the service is ready to serve requests as soon as the socket has
been created.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
