What does being "outside of an init system's > implementation" mean? What does "degraded operation" mean? Yes. I agree that it's vague. I'm open to better and clearer suggestions. When I wrote this I was hoping that the policy process would be able to refine the details but perhaps that's overoptimistic. I'm also open to suggestions that we should extend the discussion period to facilitate improvements to this and other options. How long do people think we need ?
