We talked about this a bit in the meeting last night, so anyone should feel free to check the log if needed: https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2015-10-01/magazine.2015-10-01-21.00.log.html The upshot was, this draft makes a bit more sense as an introduction, but could use a bit of sprucing up still -- one example being to describe extended systemd functionality (beyond boot/init) and why it's baked in there.
