Gamin is a file and directory monitoring system defined to be
a subset of the FAM (File Alteration Monitor) system.
The main goals of the project are:
1/ minimize the security model of FAM
2/ simplify the code base
3/ provide an API and ABI compatible replacement for FAM
4/ try to fix some other issues like resource consumption
The project home page is (temporary) at:

A mailing list is also available to discuss about this project,
see the following URL for subscription informations:

and the on-line archives:

The CVS base is in the GNOME project CVS base at cvs.gnome.org, the
module name is 'gamin'. See
http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html
From an historical point of view, gamin builds from the marmot project
authored by James Willcox and Corey Bowers and then heavilly modified
to turn it into a minimalist FAM replacement (Francophones will
appreciate the filiation from fam to marmot and gamin)
