UPS nomination

[Julian M Catchen]

They have a basic open source daemon:

APC Simple Signalling Daemon (SSD)

It is simple, but it works (I use it with my 500va).  You should be able to
find it on their web site: www.apc.com (for some reasong mozilla is choking
on their pages and so I don't have a direct link right now).
