What are those "major distributions"?

1) Debian, Ubuntu, Mint and derivatives
2) Fedora and derivatives
3) openSuSE
4) Arch
5) Mandriva / Mageia
6) Slackware
7) Gentoo

That's about it. As you see, I included Arch up there. As far as I can
see, after Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora and openSuSE (in no particular
order), Arch has been number 6 on the list of "major Linux
distributions" (excluding professional stuff like SLES or RHEL) for
several years.

What I am trying to say is: It no longer suffices to say "we follow the
major distributions" when making a decision, as Arch itself is a major
distribution now.

Still, your point stands: Redhat will be funding systemd development for
quite a while.
