Meanwhile, everyone who thinks this was the wrong decision should work to ensure that sysvinit continues to work, and should try to break dependencies between software and what some people think are essentials for the desktop. Or engage with upstream and help shape systemd so it eventually reaches Debian standards… https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/09/msg01640.html > The is currently no means to garner meaningful data about > Jessie's approval ratings, which likely means the release > team will, as usual, just guess what will fly.

And most alternatives also (will have to) incorporate systemd, so the only thing you can argue is that systemd is currently weighing down the quality of Linux in general. But it's open-source and we can make it ours and better. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> @martinkrafft : :' : proud Debian developer `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems "the condition of perfection is idleness. the aim of perfection is youth." -- oscar wilde
