I had been emailing Don Armstrong, a DD, about my concerns.
One very worrying aspect of that was the choice was either systemd or upstart; there should have been a third option to continue entirely with the status quo of sysvinit -- that third option wasn't a consideration.
Got a citation for that? Everything I've read is that the vote was for one of 5 choices: " D systemd U upstart O openrc V sysvinit (no change) F requires further discussion " And that there was only one vote for the status quo, and that person voted for further discussion in preference to that.
