I'm going to make a package for initng, for all the people requesting
it.  However, I don't know why everyone is suggesting switching Arch
as a whole.  This is new, and not heavilly tested.  Just because it is
reported as faster, doesn't make it a better choice.

The key factor being that you shouldn't reboot your box enough for
this to matter... my laptop has an average uptime of 15 days before a
reboot.  Saving 20 seconds every 15 days is not worth a switch to
something that is untested and technically a beta.

That said, in the near future I will provide a package for it, but
missing initscripts will be up to the user.  I seriously doubt Arch
will change because something was slashdotted.
