Supported platforms
-------------------
As part of this change, services written in C now have a per-service
listener process rather than a single master process for all C services.
+Ability to run multiple OpenSRF instances simultaneously
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+When starting services using `osrf_control` in the case where no PID
+files exist, the `--ignore-orphans` switch can be used to make it
+ignore the presence of other running OpenSRF router and service
+processes. Otherwise, if the `--ignore-orphans` switch is not used,
+`osrf_control` will either refuse to start the service(s) or will
+require that `--force-clean-process` be used to kill any running
+OpenSRF processes first.

+In other words, `--ignore-orphans` means that `osrf_control` can be used
+to manage the operation of multiple running OpenSRF instances on a
+single server, each with its own PID directory and core configuration.
