Before FC4 was released there was a disussion about how to make the

But until now (FC5/FC6-rawhide) nothing has been done.
Early login was in development but it stopped,
Systemservices was never in a working state.
Any plans on improving the boot process in FC6?
I would suggest to use initng which is in review for extras now [1].
But to get it in the final release it would be better to have it in
rawhide rather than in extras.

It seems to me that having suspend/hibernate working on 99.99% of all
machine will serve Fedora *much* better. While a new init system might
shave 30 seconds (or even a minute) of FC6/7 startup time, working
hibernate/suspend will cut the wake-up time to mere seconds...
As I see it, a machine should only be rebooted -if- the kernel/glibc was
upgraded. Everything else should be handled suspend/hibernate/service
restart/DE/X restart/.
