Quoting first few paragraphs from article:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Comparing init systems
This-or-that asks: One of the things I pay some attention to is the "init
diversity" spins of Antix -- and I always think of you when I read about
them. You would seem one of the few qualified to render
comparison/contrasting opinions. What do you think of the available init
systems?
Jesse Smith answers: Thank you. While I might be qualified to talk about
init software, or at least some init software and related services, I will
also state right up front that I also have a conflict of interest. I'm
currently the maintainer for SysV init (and a few related tools) so I have
more familiarity and, perhaps, more appreciation for how SysV does things.
With that said, I do try to maintain an open mind and I do think there are
good and bad aspects to all of the init implementations available to Linux
users today. Let's talk about them!
