Longtime Debian Developer Tollef Fog Heen Resigns From Systemd Maintainer Team
An anonymous reader writes Debian developer Tollef Fog Heen submitted his resignation to the Debian Systemd package maintainers team mailing list today (Sun. Nov. 16th, 2014). In his brief post, he praises the team, but claims that he cannot continue to contribute due to the "load of continued attacks...becoming just too much." Presumably, he is referring to the heated and, at times, even vitriolic criticism of Debian's adoption of Systemd as the default init system for its upcoming Jessie release from commenters inside and outside of the Debian community. Currently, it is not known if Tollef will cease contributing to Debian altogether. A message from his twitter feed indicates that he may blog about his departure in the near future.

It doesn't have to be like this. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.
Mail a bomb, presume the bombing will succeed without error, don't monitor if the bomb actually had gone off and don't send another bomb if the first bomb fails. Any other deviation from this terrorism process is not the proper UNIX way!
Look, no matter what you think of systemd, rewriting it in Visual Basic would not be an improvement.
Forget magic. Any technology distinguishable from divine power is insufficiently advanced.
