It is ok to be busy but when you are busy, decisions will be made without your input. You can't complain about having to do more work now as a end result when you weren't participating all along for over a year when you had a chance to be involved. You can't expect to come in at this late stage and reverse decisions made without very significant reasons. Common criteria requirements don't drive community decisions in Fedora otherwise. > > You're not seeing the hundreds - no thousands of emails about systemd?

I have seen such discussions regarding every major change in Fedora. SELinux, NetworkManager, PulseAudio, KDE 4, GNOME 3 - you name it. Decisions on such matters are done via FESCo which in turn is a elected body representing Fedora contributors and as contributors, we get to decide what Fedora should be. We must take feedback into account however and since I am cc'ed on all bug reports on systemd, I am well aware of how rapidly changes are being made. Read the documentation on the changes and if you find missing features, feel free to file them. > >> I understand that you are busy and paying attention to this matter only now but I >> can't consider this as a serious proposal. > I am wondering if it was ever considered to give xinetd a makeover?

If you are serious about your proposal, you are welcome to do the same. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Policy I don't see how it is going to fly however.
