Hello,
So, are you willing to share the plans for this? I take it you'll
write, or help the distribution's developers do so, s6-rc service
definitions for Alpine so it will be able to boot with s6 + s6-rc, as
an alternative to BusyBox init + OpenRC? Have you decided *how* you
are going to do it (based on Alpine's existing OpenRC service scripts,
etc.)?
I'm interested to hear it :)
