OSX is not an appropriate choice for a server, and Windows has limited reputation in my mind since they put the GUI in kernel space.

we should not emulate the things we've overtaken and have a higher server market share than. Something we've been doing before is doing it right, and I believe it's the ability to be dynamic and modular.



Windows is actually used on servers quite a bit, but that's besides the point.

Service management has been a problem on (Linux) servers for a long time. Just because launchd originates on a desktop doesn't mean it's not a good idea.
