25 <uri link="http://roy.marples.name/openrc">OpenRC</uri>, the replacement for
26 Gentoo's current services system (known as baselayout), will soon reach ~arch
27 on all platforms. It replaces the previous bash-only rc system in baselayout
28 with an rc system that has a C-based core and uses only POSIX-compliant shell
29 code.

33 OpenRC runs natively on a wide variety of systems. Out of the box, it's
34 compatible with Gentoo Linux, Gentoo/FreeBSD, Embedded Gentoo, and Gentoo
35 VServers. It also works with FreeBSD and NetBSD and can be found in their
36 package repositories, ports and pkgsrc.

41 link="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml">OpenRC Migration
42 Guide</uri></b> so you update your system properly once OpenRC and baselayout
43 2 are installed.
