I know I'm going to regret wading in here -- but maybe I can help? Uoti -- Remember when reading this rest of this message that from what I can understand from what you've written, we will likely vote nearly the same way on this GR. I've not hid the fact that I vastly prefer systemd to sysvinit, and don't really care about sysv anymore (sorry not sorry?). However: This is not the right place to have this discussion. I don't think trying to hash this out here is productive, and largely isn't adding to the substance here. We need to have this GR **not** to rehash the last god knows how many years since "the bug" was filed, but to provide direction to the project on what we should be doing (on a technical level) when it comes to supporting multiple init systems. The options provided are to show us a way out of this mess. I don't think trying to comapre and contrast is helpful or even relevant to this vote at all. The technical merits are largely not in play and shouldn't factor in to the vote too much. Please can we stop this discussion and getting baited into talking about the technical merits of pid 1? paultag -- .''`.
