I thought it was a close call on init systems (and to be fair, systemd isn't exactly the mature, rock-solid solution a replacement init should be!)
The votes for a replacement on the Debian list should have gone with Upstart IMHO as it was the most popular option, although only 1st choice for 2 of the people who mattered.
Still, it doesn't really matter now - what does matter is that the init system is rock-solid, has buy-in from the customer base (ie the community who use Linux, including server admins) and doesn't require too much re-training to understand and administer it. I'm not sure it has any of those 3 currently.
