Being a Debian developer is a volunteer exercise, one of many in
todays society. No one holds a gun to our heads (I have been an office
bearer in a fire brigade for years as well a working as a volunteer in a 
number of other enterprises) we do such work because we like to
and such work brings other benefits.

Linux is developed by more people than just Debian Developers, I
regularly submit well researched bug fixes to various projects, including 
the kernels framebuffer code (one of linux's more difficult areas to work 
in). Very much time is spent on making sure
these are well valued contributions. DD's are not the only ones spending 
time in Linux code................. 

You may in future wish to get some evidence before being judge, jury and 
excutioner, and you call me arrogent........!!!! 

This is getting me no where, I am not surprised systemd is getting plenty
of opposition as most of its proponents appear now to be incapable of 
giving a clear explanation of why they support it. I have better things to 
do with my development time than try and figure out a project with 
apparently no clear goals (as so far none has been given).
