Debian Jesse is going to have Gnome3 as the default desktop.
The desktop re-qualification page, used to help choose which desktop will be default, has in the Jesse version a weight for systemd integration, and of course only Gnome3 does it (at least for now). This will surely make the systemd/gnome3 fanbase happy, but possibly will make others unhappy, as it [may] be seen as another step towards mono-culture, until we soon end up with all distros being redhat clones.

WTF is "System D"?
If you're clueless enough to call it that, I don't expect you have any idea why it sucks, or how to configure a system that doesn't use it.
Actually, from this whole article I've got the impression that a lot of "nerds" have forgotten how to configure a Linux distro installation.
Anyone who thinks a userland init package has become critical for any and every install is holding it wrong.
RTFM or GTFO!
