Once again, you rant multiple lists whilst hiding who you are. I am Zenaan Harkness. I have some (not all) strongly held views.
As an aside, I shall use systemd and have tried a few times now, but have a technical issue or two with my setup when using systemd, which I need to find time to solve first - I intend to use systemd as default init regardless of the outcome of any GR that may or may not happen - I really do read and appreciate the technical superiority of systemd, even though I have since a year now been unable to find time to solve the issue stopping me from using it. I don't hide behind a "persona" which is clearly political in its agenda - and you hypocritically accuse others of being political... OH the irony!

Come on, you need to try a little harder for a truly good troll. Don't get me wrong - you might have some important views and you might have some significant contributions to make to the future of Debian, but you are doing a sterlingly poor job of marketing these views you hold. It might be that you are simply not aware of how bad you are presenting yourself. Firstly you need to cool down. Then, you need to be honest - go public (I'm sure many of us guess who you are, but hey, we ought assume you have good intentions) as in, don't hide behind your personas (and you really ought to avoid attaching other's personas when you yourself are using one - we call that hypocrisy, and really bad marketing too). > created to decide disagreements among package maintainers, not > to go around everyone's backs and make sweeping changes to the > core of debian linux.

There must be avenues for proposing changes to the Debian structures, if process is lacking, invent it and propose that first. If you truly hold the beliefs you are less that successfully promoting, then hold a steady course ... and good luck. > Also I read all the emails, everyone said that a GR with more than > 50 percent vote should be able to override said decision. > Then systemd won 4 votes to 4, and now the systemd camp opposes > anyone holding a general resolution and is trying to stall and > not allow such a thing to be called. A classic case of FUD, preying on the lack of knowledge of (some of) your readers to assert (by implication) bad intentions and actions which are not possible. Again, really bad form if you have some good points in there somewhere. > Pulling the ladder up after you've achived your improper victory > (through politics).

Baseless reverse-psychology assertions. > Four people get to decide what operating system debian is. > Four. And we have to accept that for some reason. Not four. Eight! They don't get to decide. They DID decide! If you think a GR will get up, stop hiding behind your persona and propose it. I highly doubt such a GR would get the votes though - make Debian a black sheep of the GNU/Linux world? Unlikely that 50%+1 DDs would vote for that, NOTWITHSTANDING all the technical reasons for the (apparent) superiority of systemd... I shall refrain from calling you a troll. I assume you have strongly held, yet fundamentally good, intentions, and are simply failing dismally to communicate effectively at this point in time. So good luck, and if you want respect, you might try toning it down a bit, Zenaan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
