Re: Proposal - preserve freedom of choice of init systems - SysV is FINE.

["Natural Linux" <naturallinux@dcemail.com>]

System V is NOT hard to "maintain"
The scripts were written YEARS ago. They're fine. They do NOT need to be changed.
Debian SysV has concurrent boot aswell.

Systemd is a poison apple. 200k lines of unaudited root privlege code. A consulting 
service to go along with this new _operating system_

Here's an under 100 line init with concurrent boot:

#include <signal.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main()
{
sigset_t set;
int status;

if (getpid() != 1) return 1;

sigfillset(&set);
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, &set, 0);

if (fork()) for (;;) wait(&status);

sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, &set, 0);

setsid();
setpgid(0, 0);
return execve("/etc/rc", (char *[]){ "rc", 0 }, (char *[]){ 0 });
}

>/etc/rc is a shell script
>syslogd && getty ; udev ; network-config ; sshd & cron & nginx


see how much bullsht systemd is.
