I don't know where this conclusion comes from. This change is about
adding some new software... When e.g. Ganesha is proposed as a Change,
it doesn't that it is the recommended network filesystem implementation.

I am open to adding some text making it explicit that this is a new
technology and probably only suitable for some use cases.

He also writes "particularly since it appears to have been developed
without the input of the journald creators". The code in question has
been reviewed on the systemd mailing list, and discussed
internally. Also, although I didn't have anything to do with initial
journald creation, I have been one the people handling bugs and adding
features to it over the last two years.

The latter. Not that I think it will not work, but making it the
default/recommended thing when it's not even written yet seems
premature.

This was proposed as a Change exactly for the purpose of gathering
feedback, even of the fargoing kind like that. There's lot of merit
in the proposed protocol modifications, but it's a fairly big modification,
and I haven't had time to properly think about it.
