True, but before promoting this bare outline resource, people should
be referred to resources such as my Manjaro Experiments, Rich
Felker's ewontfix.com/14 and ewontfix.com/15,
http://thedjbway.b0llix.net/daemontools.html,
http://troubleshooters.com/linux/diy/suckless_init_on_plop.htm, and if I
had time probably 30 other excellent articles that give a clearer
definition of what most people mean by a "supervisor", and more
generally accurate priorities in init system composition.
