Comment (by asn):

 Hi,

 the codebase of obfsproxy is nowadays in Python:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/obfsproxy.git

 We still don't daemonize in external-mode, but hopefully most people are
 using managed mode by now.

 I would still accept a patch for the Python-based obfsproxy to daemonize,
 provided that the patch is simple enough.

 Thanks!
