Wow! Congratulations for such an important piece of work.
This is actually pretty embarrassing for me, and I guess I only have myself to blame: I'm too secretive, and if people are going to use s6 as a foundation to build more tools - which is definitely a good thing - then I should embrace it and be more open about my projects. The thing is, I'm currently working on the exact same project: an init system and service manager. I call it s6-rc, and I intend to make it a part of some future release of s6. I got the design down, as well as parts of the code, but a lot remains to be written. And you really overtook me on the spot here. So, well done. Still, I believe the design work I did on s6-rc is valid, and AFAICT addresses some things that anopa does not (and vice-versa, of course.) So, shall we join forces ? Shall I present the s6-rc design, and see if there are things we can put in common, and where to go from here ? -- Laurent
