Which messages? The only one of any consequence for the situation under
discussion is

   Thank you, Anthony, for your analysis of the votes.

   Per 6.3.2, I use my casting vote to choose D as the winner.

   Therefore, the resolution reads:

     We exercise our power to decide in cases of overlapping jurisdiction
     (6.1.2) by asserting that the default init system for Linux
     architectures in jessie should be systemd.

     Should the project pass a General Resolution before the release of
     "jessie" asserting a "position statement about issues of the day" on
     init systems, that position replaces the outcome of this vote and is
     adopted by the Technical Committee as its own decision.

There is nothing there about providing choice of init system on Linux.
