Have you guys considered launchd?
I would certainly be interested in using launchd. I use systems with
SysV init, BSD init, and RCng, and (while RCng is the nicest) none of
them is as nice as launchd. It might also be interesting to look at
Sun's new init system (I can't remember the name). OpenSolaris might
be a possible base system to use (a PowerPC port is underway, but I
don't know how well it is progressing - it is funded by the PegasOS
people as I recall).
I realise the disadvantage of using launchd would be that we would
have to build and test our own base system, but I would be more than
willing to put some time and effort into this.
