Emne: Re: [DNG] Linus answers a question about systemd
True, but at the same time one has to as, where is the kdbus daemon independent of systemd that can be used by non-systemd systems to accurately test how well it works? DBus currently has no such abilities to my knowledge.

I wouldn't expect any different answer from Linus. And who wants to
read anything like "hey, I would not allow kdbus in the kernel for all
the gold in the world" in that answer should well remember that Linus
has never shown any particular philosophical interest in Free Software
or Open Source, since he is basically "motivated by technology" (as he
says himself a few lines down, in another answer to another silly
question).

This means that if he will be sooner or later convinced that kdbus is
a good piece of technology to have in the kernel, for one reason or
another, he will merge it overnight, irrespective of the real or
perceived madness and stubborness of its maintainers.

I am afraid that kdbus/systemd people will lately grasp this simple
bit of knowledge about Linus, and go for the compromise to convince
him that kdbus is good and the people around it are not monsters. At
that point they will have succeeded. And they will.
