No. The decision of the default init system should be made *before* the release team should be asked to sign off on a release goal of porting packages to a particular init system. As all of the init systems are compatible with the existing sysvinit scripts, there's no technical reason that the porting work should be done before deciding which should be the default, or even before changing the default. The TC should certainly not force a change in the archive before the pieces are technically ready, but I don't see any reason to delay the question any further. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
