Description-en: monitor of downtime, shutdown, and crashes
Downtimed is a daemon intended to monitor and record the times
an operating system is non-functional. It does this by keeping
a simple databas file and by regularly recording time stamps.
A client executable reads the database to account for the lengths
of periods when the system was down.
