Hello, So, are you willing to share the plans for this? I take it you'll write, or help the distribution's developers do so, s6-rc service definitions for Alpine so it will be able to boot with s6 + s6-rc, as an alternative to BusyBox init + OpenRC? Have you decided *how* you are going to do it (based on Alpine's existing OpenRC service scripts, etc.)? I'm interested to hear it :) G.
