Not the same thing at all. Maintenance of desktop environments doesn't
affect people outside a few people who do that. If I don't care about
fluxbox, I can ignore it completely. Maintaining two init systems
actively affects everyone who has a init script in their packages which
is a lot more. This is non-trivial and I don't see why I should
volunteer to test both a init script and a equivalent systemd unit
file. If someone is interested in maintaining upstart for current
Fedora 15 and above, they should take care of this entirely and I will
do it for one init system which is the default one.
