Description Rich Megginson 2011-04-21 18:01:29 UTC 
We need to better handle the case where a server is shutdown while a long running task is active e.g. fixup-memberof.

Tasks should check to see if the server is shutdown and gracefully exit.

For some tasks that will leave the database in a inconsistent state, we could do one of two things:

1) the server will refuse to shutdown until all tasks are finished
2) the server will print an ugly error message to the log: "hey, you killed me before I could finish task X - the database will be in an inconsistent state until you let the task complete"
