If we have to support it anyway, is it really worth spending effort on Upstart/OpenRC for Jessie? IMHO it'd be safer to wait and see where things go. For example, are Upstart developers serious about portability or was this just an experiment? Is OpenRC going to be adopted by FreeBSD and/or other BSDs? -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-hurd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
