it's not distro-specific if others adopt it, and if upstart prove
worthy, I might well join Scott in its development (and so will
others). It came from Ubuntu, and Scott is certainly very focused on
Ubuntu, but he does seem like a reasonable guy. :) /me waves to
Scott.

Any reasons why those cannot use init-as-is?

upstart will take a long while to make it into base. It needs
massive testing, but it's good to have it around to be able to do
so.

That didn't come from Debian, did it?
