A few more prophetic offerings:

This one posted before the vote in late 2014:

https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1408.1/02496.html
OT: Open letter to the Linux World
From: Christopher Barry
Date: Tue Aug 12 2014 - 15:35:49 EST
(Never hurts to repost a link in several places)

And this one appeared shortly thereafter:
https://sysdfree.wordpress.com/2018/03/26/186/
Systemd: The Biggest Fallacies by Jude C. Nelson
(This is a reprint of the original article which is no longer
