During the last two weeks, the following are finished: |

DONE, it is the "lsb.pl" script. |

The process is documented at http://wiki.debian.org/OpenRC |

I reviewed my old patch at bug 415899, and it seems to be able to |
26 |
serve as a base for the prefix integration. |

bonus: |

ccxCZ from #openrc made a GLEP draft |

The interesting point to me is to make openrc running closely |
35 |
with daemontools and runit for extended features. |
36 |
|
37 |
In this project proposal, modern extensions (a timer, a oom-killer, a |
38 |
daemon watcher) were discussed. To make openrc friendly talk to other |
39 |
tools (cron, incron, runit, etc.) to achieve these extensions are |
40 |
closest to my heart. |

1. finish the documentation on http://wiki.debian.org/OpenRC |
59 |
1b. consult rleigh@debian and aron@debian for how to do the things |
60 |
in the wiki page with deb helper scripts when packaging. |
61 |
2. ping Prefix team for the official adoption of openrc-prefix. |
