It was XBill, and there was a fork called XLennart.

Funny how his detractors spend more time on jokes than on shipping a better init daemon.

I'm like 90% sure that at some point in that era there was one called "Kill Bill" on Windows, though I do remember XBill.

Part of this might be because a high percentage of his detractors already have multiple init daemons they prefer to his.
