The release team requested email about proposed release goals for Lenny. Here is one. I propose to switch to a dependency based SysV boot system for Lenny, using the LSB headers in the init.d scripts to decide the boot sequence. It is currently possible to convert existing installations to do this. There are problems with bugs in the headers and missing headers, but base and desktop installs are working fairly well at the moment. There are bugs in the halt/reboot sequence, but not very serious ones. I hope to have this fixed soon.
See my slides from the talk I gave during debconf at <URL:http://user.skolelinux.no/~pere/mypapers/200706-bootseq/200706-bootseq.html>, with video recordings show show up on <URL:http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2007/debconf7/>.
