So, is it or is it not going to be removed eventually!? and is it or is it
not going to be replaced by launchd?
According to Josh Wisenbaker at afp548.com (in July 2005)
"It is Apple's stated intention that they want to eliminate all of those
services in favor of launchd at some point in the future"
(http://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20050620071558293)
"those services" references "init, mach_init, xinetd, RC, SystemStarter,
watchdog, and cron"
Of course, "intending" and "doing" are different, right Yoda?
