= Merb fork of BackgrounDRb
Based on the 1.0.3 version of backgroundrb this is a hacked port to MERB.  Some areas need tyding up but it works for 
all basic cases.  Contributions welcome!

= BackgrounDRb

BackgrounDRb is a Ruby job server and scheduler. Its main intent is to be
used with Ruby on Rails applications for offloading long-running tasks.
Since a Rails application blocks while serving a request it is best to
move long-running tasks off into a background process that is divorced
from http request/response cycle.

This new release of BackgrounDRb is also modular and can be used without Rails so that any Ruby program or framework can 
use it.
