In Linux Format''s ''''''Issue 72, November 2005'''''', InitNG received the Hottest Pick Award!

InitNG is a full replacement for the old and in many ways deprecated System V Init system. It speeds up the boot process with parallel starts, allows you to monitor your running daemons and has many more features.

InitNG was originally started in 2005 by [wiki:Developers/Jimmy Jimmy Wennlund], and now the development is handled by a [wiki:Developers team from all around the world].

The project '''is not dead'''. If you need help with it, please [wiki:Contact contact us].
