OK, good.
After a bit of wordsmithing and rearrangement I now have this:
== clarification text for all versions except GR ==
This decision is limited to selecting a default initsystem for
jessie. We expect that Debian will continue to support multiple
init systems for the foreseeable future; we continue to welcome
contributions of support for all init systems.
The additions, compared to the previous version, are
* add "for jessie" to the first sentence
* add the new "expect continue to support" wording as discussed
above (and make it the start of a new sentence as that seems
to read better).
As I say in the heading comment, this text would appear in both the
T (tight coupling) and L (loose coupling) versions.
Adrian, does that address your point ? I think that phrasing makes it
clear that the remaining text (whether T or L) applies past jessie,
too.
Ian.
