Hi Shawn,
I could take one of them over, Raymond. Don't have any
particular knowledge about either package, but I've got the
time.
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.
(often) not to work in 13.1:

Which is exactly why we need somebody to actively maintain plymouth..
