Greets to all,
Other obligations have consumed me, though I'm still lurking and reading
when I can

With regards to the general discussions surrounding systemd, its agenda and
future, I find the most analogous situation would be what Microsoft
attempted to accomplish with its version of Java, namely, subvert and
supplant Sun's Java.
With systemd, however, it won't be I.P. copyrights and patents preventing
their usurpation of Linux, it will be the freedom of open source.
The prevailing culture in large software vendors that exhibit a cavalier
attitude regarding the quality and support of their products can be found
in systemd. This same culture is much of the driving force which has
incentivized the market towards adoption of OSS software.

I began distrusting Red Hat years ago when I found they were selectively
removing certain kernel modules and packages to prevent compatibility with
competitor products/software.
Systemd merely confirms my former suspicions.

Red Hat may have momentum, but the light of day won't shine until RHEL 7
starts being implemented. That's when eyes will turn and begin looking
elsewhere.

and Devuan will be there.

I was inspired to make an infographic. Use freely! -->
