The problem is, if all the lobbying is left to just one or two debian users, the work load is simply too high. So Steve has a point. He needs to garner developer-lobbying support by keeping the conversation alive. If he allows the conversation to die, then the lobbying for a GR to remove systemd from Debian will not have the lobby-force of numbers to achieve the essential outcome! > For now, the decision has been taken.

Steve is entirely within his rights to lobby for a GR to remove systemd from Debian. > Do stop bellyaching to no avail. If you feel that Lennart should be > stopped, > find a way of stopping him. But this is not it. It might not be the -only- way, but I do think it's a potentially productive way. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
