There are other reasons to continue to support sysvinit: developers who want to continue to use it, ports that want to continue to use it, and so forth. I don't see any reason to drop support. It doesn't seem to be hurting anything, and the dual support model has worked out considerably better than a lot of people feared it would. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
