Re: Re-Proposal - preserve freedom of choice of init systems

[Andy Smith <andy@strugglers.net>]

Hi debian-vote,

The below poster redirected their response to my off-list mail back
to the list. I explicitly mailed them off-list and with a reply-to
of only myself set in order to avoid further list noise, and because
they seemed like they were genuinely confused.

I now see that they had an agenda and that there's nothing I can say
to alter it, so I'll leave it there. I am sorry that this got back
onto the list.

Cheers,
Andy
