Let's take another example. The REQUIREMENT line in a script cannot be
made conditional. It requires a modification of rcorder(8) to do so.
So, if one of NetBSD's services has a requirement that we don't have, it
automatically means we need two separate scripts with different
REQUIREMENT
I've been working from Gordon Tetlow's work on this, for the past few
weeks. I have managed to get most everyting up to network_pass3 in
/etc/rc. It's still very much in development, but it's quite usable and
I use it to boot my system on a daily basis.

Thanks for the hard work, Mike!

Thanks, nice to know someone appreciates it. Every one has their own
ideas about how it _should_ be done, so I expected I'd get flamed for
not pleasing everyone. OTOH it's been less than 24 hours since I posted

Looking at the repository, I have not really seen anything done with
