Our goal for F14 should be to try to get the socket activation patches upstream, which are really not obtrusive. The decision if and when to switch to systemd can be made later on. We are not in a hurry. Even after some releases with upstart our initscripts have not yet been ported to upstart event files, which says a lot IMHO :-) -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
