Uh. You are confusing "available" with "being default". It is available in quite a a number of distros, but F15 is the first big one to make it the default. > Ok so he's on vacation - this is a very core part of the OS - who is > backing him up I wonder? Who else is on the project? A lot of folks. To join our community just drop by on #systemd and the ML and you will always find folks happy to respond to your questions UNLESS OF COURSE YOU LIKE TO WRITE THEM ALL IN UPPERCASE LETTERS WITH A LOT OF EXCLAMATIONS AND INSULTS LIKE SOME PEOPLE ON THIS MAILING LIST LIKE TO DO IT. In fact shouting all the time is a great way to get yourself ignored. > Surely you're not saying there is no-one else working on systemd... > and when LP is away/busy nothing will get done ... otherwise I strongly > urge it be replaced by upstart asap. Just because I am away for a week or two systemd development didn't stop. We have quite a few contributors (ohloh counts 66 patch authors), and there a 5 folks with commit access, and a couple of patches went in while I was gone. I think systemd is a very healthy project. Much healthier than a lot of projects we ship in our distribution by default and even then some of its core components. Uh, and even much healthier than Upstart, which you seem to be a big fan of. Ohloh lists 3 patch authors.
