The GR doesn't attempt to change the default init for Jessie (Score: 1)

by seriously@pipedot.org on 2014-10-18 07:27 (#2TEX)

from the GR itself, section 3:
The TC's decision on the default init system for Linux in jessie stands undisturbed.
In other words, to systemd supporters: "don't panic", to systemd haters: "they're trying to find a solution that's good for everyone".
Is this vote an attempt to delay the inevitable?
On the one hand, there is no delaying systemd as the default init, that's a given. On the other hand, indeed, the main concern is that we're supposed to be only 3 weeks away from Jessie's freeze and that GR could delay the whole thing (as in a 2-month to 2-year delay depending on many factors).
