If the decision were something like that, and only systemd were officially supported, don't expect porters of non-Linux arches to down tools and give up. We may have to drop lots of stuff if we can't get it working without systemd. But I expect we'd still put out a release (official or not) with some other compatible init system and our own init scripts for whatever we have to. I also think some people would care enough about running GNU/Linux without systemd, that we could combine our efforts in that case. I'd like to know as soon as possible if non-Linux ports ought to focus efforts on our existing SysV init, switching to OpenRC, or be trying to port Upstart. I'm personally undecided and the tech-ctte decision could easily sway my opinion on this. Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain ste...@pyro.eu.org
