Last I recall from that thread, Roger Leigh was coordinating with
Gentoo upstream to incorporate/wrap the necessary functionality to
parse LSB header comments already present in Debian's init scripts.
He also seems to be involved in this ITP as the submitter's mentor,
judging from:

   http://wiki.debian.org/OpenRC

So I would assume this ITP is merely an outcome of that debian-devel
discussion, based on work which has been taking place behind the
scenes since the thread died down.
