## This is meant to be run from inotifyd like so:
##
## inotifyd in.pointsd $base/cur:y
##
## inotifyd runs in.pointsd serially, so all we have to do is just echo
## each file to the log, and then remove it. This allows a log message
## to be entered by writing a file into tmp, moving it to cur, and then
## moving along. Even if pointsd dies, everybody is still able to score
## points asynchronously without losing anything: it'll just get picked
## up when pointsd restarts.
