Sorry, that is probably badly translated from French. I meant as
argumentation, or "discussion point". I'm not sure if you got it now.
There was nothing about insults or anything like this.

It's not this way. Last time I checked, there was another upstream doing
about 30% of the work. The rest of is probably small patches contributed
here and there. Run

The facts are that there's no "big community" working on Systemd.
There's 2 main authors, and a crowd sending smaller (tiny?) contributions.

I'm still not convinced. Don't trust the lies from Lennart, the git
clone tells the truth:

4528 Lennart Poettering <lenn...@poettering.net>
3291 Kay Sievers <k...@vrfy.org>
676 Greg KH <g...@kroah.com>
541 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek <zbys...@in.waw.pl>
274 Michal Schmidt <mschm...@redhat.com>
190 Martin Pitt <martinp...@gnome.org>
171 Harald Hoyer <har...@redhat.com>

There is no other contributor that has done more than 100 patches. If
you count people who contributed even a single patch, there's in total
421 "contributors" (but that is not the point, is it?).

(just did a "git pull" before running the stats...)

BTW, why did you make me repeat myself? Couldn't you search in the list
archive? And in what way is this a technical argumentation to choose a
init system? What are you trying to prove here?
