It lost. Developers are not being forced to do what they don't want.
The winner was "developers will work it out themselves" i.e. Debian won.

Freedesktop just provides hosting. Substitute Sourceforge for
Freedesktop and see how well your "theory" flies.

Please replace "we" with "I" - it gives the misleading impression you
speak for the vast majority when you only speak for yourself.
Note that opposition to *the choice* of using systemd 'probably'
constitutes less than 1% of users. Noise, repitition, and FUD doesn't:-
;increase that percentage
;give you credibility
;justify your bullying
and works against those that have genuine problems with systemd.
The appropriate, polite way to deal with things you don't like - is
speak *once* and state your case fully when you do. It's healthy to
express concerns - it's unhealthy, to all, when you flood forums with
them. The means justifies the ends - and bullying doesn't end well.

Clearly it's not a project's choice of hosting that prevents your lack
of knowledge.
>Nobody understands udev rules,
Again - you're incorrect, and speaking for yourself.
*I* am not the only person who understands udev rules - far from it.

Noted, many, many times - that you behave like a bad child.

Can we Debian Users have the list back now please?
Feel free to continue your campaign on Debian Abusers - it'd be more
appropriate. Don't you think.
