Thank you for a measured reply Anthony. I take your points. I have also watched LP's FOSDEM systemd presentation on Youtube (understanding about 80% of it), and read most of the links provided by other posters (especially the internal debate between Red Hat devs). I understand that there are advantages, but I am left with the lingering impression that systemd is part of a larger project, - as discussed by Fons Adriaensen in this thread. It bothers me. Geoff
