Hello,
We (the place where I work) have some customers that run arch as their primary os and I would like to create a package that contains rc.d init files that were dropped until now.
I know this idea was discussed in the past and a lot of our users liked the idea but until now nobody stepped up.
Let me know what you guys want me to support and i'll add it into my package.
We should not support anything like this officially; it can be a source of confusion and/or give off the impression that we haven't fully switched to systemd and that it's OK to continue using initscripts on a system. Most Arch users probably have migrated to systemd by now; your customers should switch too (if they haven't done so already).
