Lisi, the Debian vote, as far as I am aware, actually included all currently available options. In other words upstart and systemd were not the only choices available. The thing is 4 TC members (Canonical employees) voted for what they know, the other 4 voted for systemd (I personally think it was a deliberate vote against Canonical control) and that then left the chairmans vote which, as we know, went systemd (I also believe Garbee voted systemd to vote against Canonical control). I have read the discussion and I will try to find the actual vote, in order to see if my recollection is correct, and I will reply again if I am wrong to clarify things.
Thanks, Michael. That is very clear.
