20 The issue of init system support recently came to the Technical
21 Committee's attention again.[1]
22
23 For the record, the TC expects maintainers to continue to support
24 the multiple available init systems in Debian.  That includes
25 merging reasonable contributions, and not reverting existing
26 support without a compelling reason.
