I agree, John.

We respect CentOS for what it is (blatantly said, being RHEL binary
replica, I know it is more...). Debian/devuan is a core system developers
team split. You want similar core system developers split here - the place
is RedHat, not CentOS and this definitely will not happen (note the
difference between debian.org and redhat.com).

So, the only productive thing about systemd on CentOS list will be to drop
all battles, accept systemd as our reality, and keep all posts restricted
to pure technical questions/answers.

Just my $0.02
