It's time to put on the brakes

It's time to put on the brakes

Parent article: Fog Heen: Resigning as a Debian systemd maintainer

Systemd issues are not unique to Debian. The kernel team has had similar problems and they ended up in a widely published whine by the Lennart Pottering.

Let's face it, folks. When a single little project develops personal problems on multiple fronts, it's not the kernel team or Debian's fault. It's not a technical issue. It's the way that Systemd has been pushed upon all of us.

But the project needs to be split up, and it needs to play well with others - including other init systems.

Oh, by the way, my Haswell system doesn't work with Debian Jessie at all, and it's a Systemd issue.

I have had enough.
