Hum, not exactly : It assesses that those interested in having other init working for a package where that support is not directly provided by upstream nor the maintainer can do the work themselves and they will get the community's help by having their patches reviewed and discussed in a timely manner. Which was not a given.

- sheepdestroyer 7y agoOnly Patch "reviewing" is guaranteed, not patch acceptance. Reviewing and discussion were not a given before this vote. This proposition at least ensure that. The maintainer will not be forced to accept patches that he deems unfit just for the sake of supporting other init systems though.
- blihp 7y agoFair point. I was more referring to the fact that the Debian project itself isn't actively looking at / working on anything to replace systemd.
