I just tried systemd. And it just failed. I don't want to know anything else, and I don't want to find out why. Just looking at its underlying framework without having to make it run successfully is enough to get the point across - it is _not_ KISS. If it ever comes to development attention to "adopt as default" or "replace sysvinit", I will personally cast a negative vote. With that said, I am all for dynamic systems. I may even use systemd personally in the future. We use Arch Linux, so we can do what we want with our systems. What the "default" is doesn't really matter. The packages get my vote.
