Sorry not to give you an explicit heads-up about this resolution.  (It
has been proposed in this form for some time now though.)

Anyway, I think as regards T vs L we are chiefly exercising our power
to set technical policy.  As regards the default init system we are
making a decision which has been requested of us by the people
normally responsible (which would be the d-i maintainersI think).

Certainly we do not intend to overrule any maintainer with this
resolution.

Thanks,
Ian.
