What's up with the words words words

According to one of the links in the original article, OpenRC and sticking with SysVinit were also evaluated as options early in the discussions.

I'm sorry could you post a link?

I just really don't like how this stuff is couched in words from either an apt/yum dudes blog that focuses on boot time.

No, I can't post a link. That phornoix article only links to other phoronix articles and I can't find a way to an actual discussion thread or meeting minutes from people that were actually involved and I don't have time to search for one.

It's cool, everyone digs monolithic stuff anyway.

I believe the main reason it wasn't really considered in the debian discussions was that they couldn't find any real documentation of it.
