It won't change so long as people don't work on it. In a reply to a very similar-toned post of yours to debian-user, I pointed out that there were plenty of constructive ways that *you*, or anyone else, could contribute towards ensuring the next release of Debian was how you wanted it. In that case it was testing sysvinit support. If you truly cared about Debian/kFreeBSD, you wouldn't be trying to blame systemd for its shortcomings, you'd be rolling your sleeves up and fixing bugs. Please don't post any more to debian-vote.

I'd appreciate an apology for having our motives impugned and this unfortunate situation used as yet another stick in an unrelated "dispute", but I won't be holding my breath.

However, it looks like Linux as we know it is at a crossroad -- it will be "Lennart Poettering Linux" or something else that something else looks like it will have to be FreeBSD direct now.
