It will come back in some different form. Linus supports the concept |
| 8 |
of improved IPC in Linux which was the intent of kdbus. There were |
| 9 |
apparently just a number of issues with the overall design which has |
| 10 |
led to it being abandoned in its current form. |

The concept of dbus/policykit/etc is a very good one, and I don't know |
| 13 |
too many who object to it at that level. At a conceptual level it |
| 14 |
lets ANY piece of software expose services to the system and allow |
| 15 |
administrators to control who is allowed to access which services in a |
| 16 |
generic way. At some level it is a more sane replacement for |
| 17 |
/etc/sudoers and POSIX capabilities for routine use. |
