parazyd and a few others have started experimenting with openrc in ascii, but my understanding is that they are repackaging openrc from gentoo, instead than using the packages provided by Debian. The main problem we have to solve here is finding a smart way of letting different init systems become interchangeable. This is not trivial, and any choice made there will have profound implications on the way Devuan will provide alternative inits (if at all), and on the cost of the associated development. So I wouldn't be surprised if having OpenRC installable and tested on ascii would require substantially more than the time needed to read this thread ;) HND KatolaZ -- [ ~.,_ Enzo Nicosia aka KatolaZ - GLUGCT -- Freaknet Medialab ] [ "+. katolaz [at] freaknet.org --- katolaz [at] yahoo.it ] [ @) http://kalos.mine.nu --- Devuan GNU + Linux User ] [ @@) http://maths.qmul.ac.uk/~vnicosia -- GPG: 0B5F062F ] [ (@@@) Twitter: @KatolaZ - skype: katolaz -- github: KatolaZ ]
