That all depends on what we plan to implement. Harald's SystemManager is an /etc/rc replacement, and works along side of our SysVinit (iirc); but something like initng[0] is a full out replacement, but has no file conflicts and should work with SysVinit installed. I originally thought FE would be ideal because it would give anyone a chance to test things out (although, SystemManager seems to be more transparent and easier to toss in to core right away), and we wouldn't have to have it obsolete anything until it gets into core. luke [0]: http://initng.thinktux.net -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
