As far as I've heard only a few people have actually voiced support for that beachfront property. As few as 20 total.
Debian has always been the stable distro. Beachfront is not the right way to go for default debian. Nor is some castle on a cliff over the beachfront area. It is not the correct decision. -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 2/16/14, Aigars Mahinovs <aigar...@debian.org> wrote: Subject: Re: Honestly, fork systemd To: redl...@hush.com Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, "debian-de...@lists.debian.org" <debian-de...@lists.debian.org>, debian-proj...@lists.debian.org, "ChaosEsque Team" <chaosesquet...@yahoo.com> Date: Sunday, February 16, 2014, 5:21 AM On 16 February 2014 14:34, <redl...@hush.com> wrote: > The alternative is allready here.

If you insist on alegories, then the choice now stands between building on a solitary rock in the middle of a stormy sea or building on the sandy beaches of a popular costal town. Often it is easier to put in the work to drive down piles trought the sand down to bedrock and injecting some concrete where needed to form your own rock foundation rather than transport everything to that rocky island. And the end result for the users is a much more useful home. The choice in Debian has been made - we like the beachfront property. Help us make the best of it - investigate where the sand is weakest and inject concrete there, find the bedrock and drive some piles to it, add liquifaction protection where that is needed, be constructive. The house will be build here. If you can help its construction and help it be stronger - please help. If you are going to continue advocating not building here - please don't. That one is settled. I personally dislike systemd on a few technical and few social grounds, but I respect the decision of Debian TC and will do what I can to make systemd in Debian be the bast it can be and make Debian with systemd the strongest system it can be. I hope others will do the same. -- Best regards, Aigars Mahinovs mailto:aigar...@debian.org #--------------------------------------------------------------# | .''`.
