Summary for i have done:

     -- Reimplement lsb parser by Python(I don't know Perl).

     -- Read some OpenRC source code, update-rc.d and /etc/init.d/rc.

     -- Tried OpenRC on Debian and see it how run on Gentoo.

Problem:

     -- Get more error when to try generate dependency(I forget 
screenshot and Debian died)

Planning for next week:

     -- update-rc.d integration: calling rc-update on every update-rc.d 
call.
