hmmm, interesting idea, but I have a lot of issues |
| 2 |
with this type of approach, namely: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
init scripts really need to be easy to maintain with |
| 5 |
external requirements kept to a minimum |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
script, generally, are the easiest, more readable |
| 8 |
approach to init scripts. You don't modify init |
| 9 |
scripts every day so remembering how you did things is |
| 10 |
a pain if its not script based |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I really do not want to learn yet another |
| 13 |
language/approach just to get daemons etc up and |
| 14 |
running on boot up |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I really do not see boot up speed as a problem, on |
| 17 |
servers and workstations you do not spend you life |
| 18 |
rebooting the things. I've had servers running for |
| 19 |
years without a reboot. |

|
| 21 |
I must be honest and say that the Gentoo init system |
| 22 |
is not easiest in the world, I prefer the old |
| 23 |
rcX.d/Sxx[name] approach myself as its simple, but I'd |
| 24 |
still prefer the current approach over the proposed |
| 25 |
approach. |
