+ <description><p>Since this evening, with the upload of sysvinit version 2.87dsf-2,
+and the upload of insserv version 1.12.0-10 yesterday, Debian unstable
+have been migrated to using dependency based boot sequencing. This
+conclude work me and others have been doing for the last three days.
+It feels great to see this finally part of the default Debian
+installation. Now we just need to weed out the last few problems that
+are bound to show up, to get everything ready for Squeeze.</p>
+
+<p>The next step is migrating /sbin/init from sysvinit to upstart, and
+fixing the more fundamental problem of handing the event based
+non-predictable kernel in the early boot.</p>

+ <description><p>After several years of frustration with the lack of activity from
+the existing sysvinit upstream developer, I decided a few weeks ago to
+take over the package and become the new upstream. The number of
+patches to track for the Debian package was becoming a burden, and the
+lack of synchronization between the distribution made it hard to keep
+the package up to date.</p>
+
+<p>On the new sysvinit team is the SuSe maintainer Dr. Werner Fink,
+and my Debian co-maintainer Kel Modderman. About 10 days ago, I made
+a new upstream tarball with version number 2.87dsf (for Debian, SuSe
+and Fedora), based on the patches currently in use in these
+distributions. We Debian maintainers plan to move to this tarball as
+the new upstream as soon as we find time to do the merge. Since the
+new tarball was created, we agreed with Werner at SuSe to make a new
+upstream project at <a href="http://savannah.nongnu.org/">Savannah</a>, and continue
+development there. The project is registered and currently waiting
+for approval by the Savannah administrators, and as soon as it is
+approved, we will import the old versions from svn and continue
+working on the future release.</p>
+
+<p>It is a bit ironic that this is done now, when some of the involved
+distributions are moving to upstart as a syvinit replacement.</p>

+ <description><p>For å forstå mer om hvorfor standardkatalogens versjon 2 ble som
+den ble, har jeg bedt om kopi fra FAD av dokumentene som ble lagt frem
+for regjeringen da de tok sin avgjørelse. De er nå lagt ut på NUUGs
+wiki, direkte tilgjengelig via "<a
+href="http://wiki.nuug.no/uttalelser/200901-standardkatalog-v2?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=kongelig-resolusjon.pdf">Referansekatalogen
+v2.0 - Oppsummering av høring</a>" og "<a
+href="http://wiki.nuug.no/uttalelser/200901-standardkatalog-v2?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=kongelig-resolusjon-katalogutkast.pdf">Referansekatalog
+for IT-standarder i offentlig sektor Versjon 2.0, dd.mm.åååå -
+UTKAST</a>".</p>
+
+<p>Det er tre ting jeg merker meg i oppsummeringen fra
+høringsuttalelsen da jeg skummet igjennom den. Det første er at
+forståelsen av hvordan programvarepatenter påvirker fri
+programvareutvikling også i Norge når en argumenterer med at
+royalty-betaling ikke er et relevant problem i Norge. Det andre er at
+FAD ikke har en prinsipiell forståelse av verdien av en enkelt
+standard innenfor hvert område. Det siste er at påstander i
+høringsuttalelsene ikke blir etterprøvd (f.eks. påstanden fra
+Microsoft om hvordan Ogg blir standardisert og påstanden fra
+politidirektoratet om patentproblemer i Theora).</p>
