Having now looked at both projects, it appears to me that they are in
conflict. They could be made to work side by side, in the same way that
systemd's cron replacement feature doesn't necessarily mean that you can't
run traditional crond, but there is significant overlap in terms of
categorization policy. That is, libcgroup uses cgclassify to put stuff into
cgroups, whereas systemd uses pam_systemd for users and creates cgroups
automatically for services.

This overlap doesn't seem good for the distribution.


Dan, *could* systemd as it stands provide what you need for sandboxes?
