So Upstart gets completely removed or is it really just the init-part (upstart-sysv) that gets removed so that Upstart continues to work in 16.10+ besides systemd to run legacy jobs? Otherwise I have to migrate a few custom jobs to systemd before Ubuntu 16.10 gets released in october.

Since init is essential and upstart-sysv conflicts with systemd-sysv this means it is not possible to install Upstart in a sane way anymore. In case Upstart is not supported anymore maybe all related packages should be removed from the yakkety repository then (since Upstart can't be installed anymore with apt for the reasons above) to avoid confusion.
