All of this seems very attractive. At the moment I just see one
point which is still a nightmare and is not in your list: the sound system.
Could it be possible to work out a setup of the sound system simple
enough for the random admin to understand how it works and make
educated choices? Eg some set up which would not use Pulse, except for
those apps which exclusively want it, like Skype.
Do you seriously consider it possible to keep systemd in one of
these eggs?
Any news of s6? I'm afraid Laurent has leaved the list, either
because he didn't like our disussions or because he was upset by his
emails from dynamic address being rejected.
Cheers.
