Well... has there? I think it's good to have one that MUST be supported, but why not more? In principle I tend towards systemd, which seems more powerful and likely to be supported by more people in the end. upstart is rather a Canonical thingy and it seems rather unclear where Canonical is really heading towards (just look at developments like Mir).
