Bueno raza, aqui les traigo una simple clase de daemon que pueden utilizar para hacer sus propios daemons facilmente. Esta basado en el de este camarada, yo solo le agregue la integracion con signals para que cuando se mate el servicio de la forma kill pid hiciera el proceso normal de limpieza y removiera el archivo pid. A continuacion la clase:
#!/usr/bin/env python
