We try to explain what is going on with the boot process. Systemd makes it opaque. See http://www.faqs.org/docs/artu/ch01s06.html It especially violates the first rule: "Make each program do one thing well. To do a new job, build afresh rather than complicate old programs by adding new features." > The reason why I tried > it out in the first place was due to three reasons.

We don't modify any code, just bypass autotools. and as of Gnome 3.8, I've heard that it will be a hard dependency. There are a lot of people dropping Gnome. I guess that will accelerate. > I must also say, that this has been the most stable system yet since the > introduction of Gnome 3.0.
