Fork it, we already have Buntu and Minty. Let's have another fork.

If he forked it a lot of the better Debian devs might well follow him to the fork, it could become the BETTER Debian.

It's absolutely insane that there needs to be a non-systemd Debian fork.
It should be the other way around: the systemd supporters should have been the ones to fork Debian, integrated systemd, and then proven to the world that it was better, without affecting the rest of the Debian community and installations.
When developing any software, you make breaking changes in a separate development branch, not in your stable trunk or master branch. And you only integrate them if and when they become stable.
