The only thing is, Daemontools has no way of telling it which order to load things, so, for instance, I'll need to load the dns server before Dovecot and Apache, so the dns server will continue to be loaded by the init system. Daemontools is an outstanding system, and I think everyone should have at least a passing familiarity with it.
