I agree.
In perfect world of knowlegable programmers writing software that works
there is no need for supervisors.
One can handle errors or leave this for supervisor.
For me supervisor will always be a tool of a helpless admin.

For quite a few modern java developers it is easier to dump their

specification, i believe.
For quite a few system admins it

upstart is init subsystem which is using same names for binaries; commands
as sysvinit probably to be a drop in replacement, not ment to coexist with
sysvinit.
sysv-rc,openrc , file-rc all depend on init binary daemon and are
replacements for init.d/rc(S) files which init binary executes. so they
If I had to be and admin of mixture of linux distributions I would
probably use 'service', instead of remembering all commands suited for
different init flavours and checking on which box I'm about to run a

But in such a case I probably would not care what kind of init

IMHO i would expect package init scripts for default init system to be part
of a package (binary,base, etc) and scripts for alternate systems to be in

I vote for init to be default for at least few years.
Devuan might consider switching to something else few years after
wheezy lts will be dead.
Meantime, all other init systems should be optional in Devuan.

IMHO automount for desktop is a helper for a user running some X
session. Usually that means that a single person is using this system.
So make him a helper which can do automount/autorun etc which helps
him on a daily basis. Helps him not the admin of the system. A simple

It might be tricky if application does not support startup/shutdown procedure.
That's why
Cannot. This is from the s6 docs. I'm not using s6. Just heard about it today.
Another s6 limitation - finish script must end in 3 seconds. or will be killed.
Nice for desktop, not a server.
It used to be that an application is responsible for proper start
up/shutdown procedure, as application kno
