I was just about restarting work on this when I read that bombshell-news
about dropped support for SysV.  What an unfortunate and blatantly wrong
decision!  Very disappointing and demotivating.

To me it seems pointless now to contribute to this project anymore.  So
I drop out of this thread here.  And this will be one of the very rare
occasions where I did not conclude what I had started.

Thanks for your work and efforts!
