You may not like the idea of changing, but it probably will be the best thing for you to do to avoid more pain down the line. No rush, but I reckon the anticipation is accually worse than the switch.

Well said.

I know that nobody in arch has declared the switch is inevitable
but the way it looks, with upstream being eager enough to do so,
it seems incredibly likely unless we train everyone to use DJB's
daemontools instead. :P  http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html

Sorry.  I couldn't resist.
