It would be far better if non vendor LSB conformant add ons
were the ones which had a mandatory prefix. I suspect that lsb.2001-
would'nt be a common prefix for init files in most distributions.
Rationale: on most machines, there are way more vendor init
scripts than there are third party init scripts.

The garden is in mourning; The rain falls cool among the
flowers. Summer shivers quietly On its way towards its end. Golden
leaf after leaf Falls from the tall acacia. Summer smiles,
astonished, feeble, In this dying dream of a garden. For a long
while, yet, in the roses, She will linger on, yearning for peace, And
slowly Close her weary eyes. Hermann Hesse, "September"
