I could take one of them over, Raymond. Don't have any particular knowledge about either package, but I've got the time.
Hi Shawn,
Great. Thanks a lot. As discussed on IRC, I will transfer today the "ownership" of DRACUT to you on OBS and bugzilla.
Only package remaining is Plymouth and I guess that people rather see it disappear than to help out.
No, I don't want to see it disappear at all (since it has replaced all other boot splash alternative, for the good) but I don't have time to maintain it.
How long does the average system nowadays take until X starts up? If there is a black screen for a few seconds, so what? That's the time the initrd takes to load if plymouth is in there anyways ;-)
Plymouth also allows smooth transition (no flicker) between splash and
display manager. And it can display a non frightening UI to request
passphrase for encrypted disk.
