I do hope for something like this. Continuing to support SysV doesn't have to be a requirement. A comfortable transition away from SysV initscripts is possible, as long as native init definitions are provided for the official init system[s], and for whatever the ports have. (That's also why GNU/kFreeBSD and Hurd ought to pick the same). Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
