Dear Mr Ferguson, We really must object. You will surely be aware that our company has the rights to Fortune Telling throughout most countriea in the world. For you to encourage a random person to encroach on our intellectual property, patents and trademarks is very questionable. Way back in 2004 our Crystall Ball Complex ran a program on the fuiure of init systems. The first word it churned out was 'ringettoper'. We were perplexed but, realising the system was running on a Red Hat base, we changed to Debian and got 'tringeepot', which made a lot more sense to us. Early in 2005 'stemdys' mixed up with 'startup' and 'vinitsys' started to appear on the Jessie Predictor and we realised we had trouble on our hands, The question was whether to release our findings to the world or be cautious. We chose the later course. Half our directors resigned from the company over the decision. The management of GypsyRoseLee does not regret the course of action we took. It is a reliable predictor of the future - not a manipulator of it. Our state of the art Palm Reading and Bumps on Head Cloud Cluster is at present predicting a bright future for Debian using systemd. If everyone pulls together the coming release could be the best ever. We urge you to refrain from damaging our business. As a mark of good faith on our part we would like you to be aware that one of our predictions for 2015 is that corks dangling from strings from the brim of a hat will be out of fashion, Star Gazingly yours, GypsyRoseLee. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
