Why don't you guys try to write down _requirements_ ie. list of properties 
that the new system must have before introducing it to PLD?

Here we have a few wishes:
-all services are restarted automatically after unexpected shutdown (unless 
specified otherwise by root on per service basis)
-service can only _start_ when all its dependant services are running (that 
means no cascading shutdown of services), or can _run_ when all dependant 
services are running (in case there are services that would cause harm if 
their dependant services died)
-common part of initng and current init scripts should be as big as possible
-faster startup by parallelization
-etc. (but you should propably continue in CVS)

Once more: the idea is to write down WHAT IS NEEDED and then think if it's 
doable.
