No, what I find annoying is telling volunteer what they have to do without doing anything yourself on the issues you raise and repeating "don't break Linux" endlessly. I think everybody knows by now you believe that, there's no (constructive) use in further repeating it. As a comparison: I don't go to the PHP mailing lists and tell them that they have to fix their namespace operator (\) or rewrite software I might want to use in a sane[1] language. I think the current systemd threads here are pretty much that. In fact, I've become annoyed enough by these threads that I won't bother to look at sysvinit support in my packages any longer -- if it breaks I won't look at it myself. I won't spend my free time on fixing things for people who annoy me.
