Package: release-notes Severity: normal The upstart init system has been removed from unstable/testing, so it looks like it won't be part of the upcoming stretch release. I raised this issue on debian-devel [1] and one recommendation was, that this fact should be mentioned in the release notes. We should suggest that users switch to a supported alternative because post-stretch it's likely that maintainers start removing native upstart jobs.
