Designing a new init: configuration

The question is, do we need a system that can use such plugins - I'd
prefer a system so small it runs on the embedded systems I'm also
developing on.
minit works like a charm there - without fork(). Because it's a noMMU
platform...
When we design a new system, I'd love to have a core with as low
requirements as that.
Nothing wrong with doing more on a higher level though - if we can do
a "ln -s /usr/sbin/initrc-parser run" so to speak - fine.

best regards,
Erich Schubert
