Full Discussion: Devuan debian "Fork"
Operating Systems Linux Debian Devuan debian "Fork" Post 302935316 by Azrael on Saturday 14th of February 2015 10:45:43 PM
Old 02-14-2015
From what I have heard Ubuntu is not planning any fork at this time. Red Hat 7 is going to systemd and Ubuntu is going to it soon, like regular Debain.

The push for the fork you mentioned came from die-hards in the Debian community. Someone in the Ubuntu community would have re-write a future release of Ubuntu with the old sysvinit intact. So far I've not heard or seen any talk of this on the web for Ubuntu or Red Hat. Only part of the Debian community is fighting it and making a separate distro over it.

Part of the debate is theological, but a lot of tech divides are there as well. I suggest you check out this article when you have time.
