Every developer decision affects the users. As in any sane system of 
governance for this type of organization, the ones doing the work get to make 
the decisions. If you want to be in on the decisions, pick an orphaned 
package. I have been Treasurer of my congregation for six years and will stand 
for President next year. I hear lots of complaints from people who are 
unwilling to do any work to make the organization work. To all I say: "Either 
help or get out of the way."

Red Hat is shipping systemd with RH 7. If one were to google "redhat systemd" 
the RH systemd documentation can be found. I spent some time reading this last 
night. I found some of the features compelling. Since Red Hat focuses on 
reliability over all else, I really doubt that systemd will destroy your 
system.

Linux will survive and perhaps thrive with or without you.

Best to all,
