The TC is not in a position to say much at the moment. TC voting on the question posed Saturday hasn't ended yet (Andi hasn't voted), and even at its conclusion, that statement is going to necessarily be fairly sparse. There is ongoing (I hope) discussion over whether to offer technical advice to the project on how to handle sysvinit compatibility for jessie, dependencies, and the possibility of support for multiple init systems, which has not concluded. I think there's general consensus that no one should rush into anything, packaging-wise, until we have a good idea of how we're handling those issues, whether or not the TC is the appropriate place to hammer them out. In addition, given previous public statements, it seems at least somewhat likely that we're going to have a GR, so from the press perspective the whole question is not settled. I personally would defer to the Debian press team to decide whether they feel we should make a public statement at this time. I think we're still in the middle of our process, which I understand that a lot of people outside the project find baffling and protracted. I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to comment on that or not. My personal professional experience is that ignoring the press unless you have something specific you want to say is a good default, but this is *far* from my area of expertise. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
