Is everyone in line with that decision?
About upstart as default, my understanding is that (i) defunding upstart development will likely make that question moot cause the Ubuntu community is very probably not interested in putting up the work now that everybody else switches, (ii) I saw statements from other technical board members before Mark's announcement that dropping upstart as default is likely, now that Debian is moving to systemd for the Linux ports. The more interesting question is whether upstart will be continued as a community project and/or supported as an alternative in Debian/Ubuntu. Not sure about that.
