From debian and hurd to slackware which will not touch systemd ever and |
| 8 |
ubuntu and also embedded with the kernel working on more and more |
| 9 |
deeply embedded processors and userland working potentially on less or |
| 10 |
more difficulties in porting if lennart's dreams ever come to pass, |
| 11 |
which I hope many won't. So way more than half of linux will not use |
| 12 |
systemd by default likely ever and it is rather different. Any |
| 13 |
unification it does bring like /etc/hostname could be easily achieved |
| 14 |
with a little organisation without systemd and would be way more |
| 15 |
constructive if it happened because of that single purpose. |

I didn't even mention POSIX compliance which is a requirement on many |
| 18 |
projects. Fudging POSIX into Linux only would defeat the whole point of |
| 19 |
POSIX, though apparently that is a real danger. |
