Ian Jackson has resurrected the general resolution prohibiting Debian packages from depending on a single init system. This resolution failed to obtain enough seconds to proceed to a vote back in March, but this time more seconds have appeared and a vote will take place after the two-week discussion period. The initial discussion suggests that there is some support for the idea, but that not everybody appreciates seeing this resolution just before the jessie release is supposed to go into a freeze.
