I drafted following text, expressing my vision of problem. You may wish to extend it with your vision.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Dear Technical Comitete, currently, inclusion of new init system into Debian requires inclusion into pre-dependency of bin:init package, which is unsatisfactory. As can be followed in #838480, current practice puts maintainer of any new init system to be included into Debian at disadvantage, essentially granting maintainer of bin:init (which happens to be `systemd' team now) veto right. According to Constitution 3.1, individual developer poses power of descision making only with regard their /own/ work. Hereby, I ask TCCE to provide requirements init system must satisfy that /warrants/ inclusion into pre-dependency of essential bin:init. Alternatively, I ask to consider introducion of virtual package 'init-system'. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEhnHVzDbtdH7ktKj4SBLY3qgmEeYFAlwcvjsACgkQSBLY3qgm EeYKLg//UxjrTQiM6kIpiHmJ8hdsO24ZcwzBjqsECZZDFns6n8lgWCqMbFzMZMaX U93jengYK99teJ2KsvVXrLvJO/AXpvzZ78vL6AcPsQ7m4F+jPNvMvf2S5sNEyIj6 WOWhQxzVfIHxmqKrRzgkFN+fLh14pDLJl8rGAAvvHoCvl5AuB1Bt95J0uTTgNYqe uK0Ro4Csc7mhPSLXfmeQnr8FTrARW4/qFTLjzfhTfkrjaAn+/ubJrxyAdvN4ebea MZ1EK4MjSUui+qPFHdaCDx2r4qiWnZ4Fy6Oi+XKPDLlffzpttU6PvhT6RxpGFI3q qEIOEkXwPU5VtBMO9j6pwfIrg/Ad0jTYiNdPYk9ytGWsb6uKTrIWgZIr4J+LZS8w 1iqm6FQer39PZ+cvvdCLtGb7yk+PPwd5YQ6Fp/hPJL16aiZHpb7ymZt9Dg8iY+Uh E0Xs8Tph74yIoXJY4bMNHao+54Fk94vWaRnNlbA+tszpQRPzW5CatOoktB4hgLnj V/w1WFO3/IkHH9l2YtVgGk8QZDS9OxZFf+AHEQCc13FqSHWWbQwFgJDcv40jNzz1 ac2WUZn5b30uKh+AsP2P4hdSWktAtBHtL5aYHH8ACWAjAG4TdAlVXLqArJhIyDUT evw3yrCZMB01zwDA/5AdopxAbvLAKURKgypPCwk0X3b9/KZp8PY= =KYX7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
