Perhaps I'm misinterpreting your use of the word "blocker".  Regardless,
it sounds like we are all in agreement.  We are concluding that they
won't be considered as blocker *bugs* (alpha or otherwise).  Unless of
course the absence, or presence, of the updated systemd script does
somehow cause any of the Alpha criteria to fail.  They won't be
considered blocker bugs, but FESCO has the right to delay release of any
milestone (alpha, beta or final) should they decide a late/inprogress
feature is a must for a particular milestone.

To make sure I'm understanding, do you mean the next goal would be to
determine the status of the SysV->systemd feature and whether it will be
on track for a Beta TC1 target?  If it isn't ... FESCO must decide
whether to hold the release, or drop the feature.

Thanks,
James
