Is it hidden-source?
You can find the release tarballs at http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/software/upstart/ and the software is developed in a bazaar-ng repository at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~keybuk/upstart/main So it's not closed source. On the other hand I don't know if they actually accept input from outside. Only time will tell. Without a doubt "upstart" has the advantage that Ubuntu can and will push that into their distro. But as it is not really developed independently I doubt other distros will so easily switch over. I think there is no need to panic, although I think upstart has some nice ideas there is room for both concepts. Let's see what people will choose.
