similiar to launchd, the goal of finit is to be a FAST replacement for:

* Integrate the ingenious libev to handle all events: signals,

polling fd's, etc. Because "Event driven software improves

concurrency" -- Dave Zarzycki, Apple. See the launchd video

* Add support for process and system supervision. Which could

be an API wrapping, e.g., TIPC and loadavg.
|

* Add support for a /dev/watchdog plugin to replace watchdogd
|

* Integrate watchdog plugin with process/system supervisor to

reboot the system when a process stops responding, or when

restarting it is imposible, as well as when system load gets

Runlevels

* Improve support for runlevels: startup, running (services from
|

finit.conf), and shutdown as well as hooks when switching RL,
|

startup at RL 1 and a default run level.
|
||||
* Implement initctl stop|start|restart|reload|status <SVC> and

service <SVC> stop|start|restart|reload|status on top
|

* Add PRE and POST hooks for when changing runlevels
|

at boot. These scripts are run before the actual runlevel set in

inittab. In finit we could use "task [S]" and "boot [S]" for this.
