Well, Debian obviously can not adopt it as it has been a multi-kernel distribution for some years, supporting HURD and FreeBSD kernels in addition to Linux.

It can't be installed currently though (due to a conflict with udev).

I think the issue is that it can't be the default init system unless it also runs on those systems.
