One thing to note is that systemd works reasonably well in Wheezy right now.  
There are some bugs in some situations, but nothing that makes it difficult to 
get it going for a quick test.

It would be best if everyone who wants to discuss systemd on Debian would just 
install a Debian test system with systemd and try it out.  Reading man pages 
is no substitute for running a system.

Also if anyone wants to criticise systemd then they could start by filing one 
well researched bug report concerning it.  If systemd is that bad then it 
should be easy to find a bug and file a report.  If however it's so good that 
one can't easily find a bug then criticism probably doesn't make sense.
