Init's job is to start the init scripts and then hang around to foster orphan processes. Ideally, it should not be parsing configs, but should spawn another process to do that sort of work. A good PID 1 is very, very minimal.

This project isn't just a PID1 though, it's a full system. (Well at the moment it's a hello world, but that's the intent)
