In principle all we want to say is that it's a list named
"Debian-init-diversity" (because it's a list *about* Debian stuff).
We've expanded that name slightly by referring to it as the "Debian
init *system* diversity list", but if necessary it could just stick to
an alternative init system, help may be available from <ulink
url="https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/debian-init-diversity/">the
Debian-init-diversity list</ulink>.
