Hi,

Others have already expressed their view that using a *new* format
for the init scripts isn't something they want. I wouldn't like to have
to use yet another system, which would mean that we wouldn't be
able to take upstream init script and just do very little adaptation to
make it work in Debian. Here, we're talking about *always* having
to rewrite all from scratch, not just few times.

By the way, does anyone know a way to count the numbers of init
script with have archive wide? It'd be nice to know how much work
it would be to rewrite absolutely all init.d scripts, and how many
source package this involves.
