I don't see any double standard here. As I explained in my mail starting this 
thread: we are very open to code for different distribution stacks. We accept 
code for BSD, we accept code for consolekit2. Neither do we go extra miles to 
test/write code on BSD, nor on consolekit2. So I don't see the double 
standard. If you have specific examples where such a double standard existed, 
please tell me! I would be very interested in that personally.

Sure if it's a solution just for one specific distribution we might ask you to 
keep it in your distro. E.g. I cannot see us taking in code to integrate 
better with yast2. That's something I would see fit better into openSUSE's 
repos.

Cheers
