This is a good point.  I think we should fix it.  This is IMO a reason
not to call the vote tomorrow evening (unless we get a consensus fix
before then).

Yes.  I would still prefer to see something like that.  I don't
remember exactly what the objections were and I'm very very tired now
but perhaps something like

  We expect that Debian will continue to support mkultiple init
  systems for the foreseeable future.

would be acceptable to everyone ?  I can't remember what the
objections were to my previous wording.  Or some other phrasing.

I would be happy to clarify them like that.  I prefer the "multiple
... foreseeable future" approach if we can get consensus on a
particular form of words.

Thanks,
Ian.
