I am the OpenRC author/maintainer and a member of base-system. I can |
| 23 |
tell you that we are not discussing forcing systemd on everyone in |
| 24 |
Gentoo Linux as a default init system. I can also tell you that I am not |

aware of the Gentoo systemd team discussing this. Even if they were, a |
| 26 |
distro-wide change like this would have to be brought before the |
| 27 |
Council. |
