I meant what would a wider solution than generating init scripts be. I read your response to mean you viewed init scripts as somehow substandard (given the quotation of "solution") to some other thing and wanted to know what that other thing was. I can only think of a wider solution as being more init scripts for more platforms all packaged & abstracted into a GUI such as StrongLoop's.
That aside, though, your process manager looks like a very lovely, neat package of enterprise devops tools; part of which I probably would have been using since the December Arc announcement if not for the cost.
