IMO calling comments like "The current [bad] state of upstart in Debian is a reflection of the upstart maintainers' respect for Debian and desire to not destabilize the distribution" advocacy is perfectly accurate. Especially when systemd in Debian works much better, without causing such "destabilization". Note that my comment about his FUD posting was not based only on the mail I was replying to. I've already commented on false claims he's made earlier: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/02/msg00935.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/02/msg01177.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/02/msg01182.html > In contrast to your systemd advocacy as the new default init Steve > outlined the necessary changes to provide upstart as an alternative to He posted some actual information and some quite dubious claims.

I think the evidence I described in my mail is quite significant. Whether the switch actually happens "soon" is another question; but that's due to RHEL being maintained in a very conservative manner. Note that Steve wrote "no indication", and without any qualification such as "soon". Would you really honestly say there's "no indication" of RHEL switching away from upstart? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
