Maybe. But make that a full redesign. If you are going to do it, you better
do it right, i.e., make it LSB-compatible, capable of using dependencies,
logging to syslog (packing the output of each service together by default,
switchable off for debugging), capable of doing things in parallel, and
submit it to the LSB too while at it.

Yes, but not for Debian. Do a google hunt of the net, I lost the URL a long
time ago...
