Yes, and they are. http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/timedated http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/hostnamed http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/localed That's the problem with you people: one tries to be nice to you, and document it all in much detail outside of the codebase, keep the systemd name out of all the interfaces, to make it really easy for you guys to adopt this without having to touch this evil systemd stuff at all, but you don't appreciate it, you just complain anyway that we'd mistreat you and everything was just an evil plot against you. You guys were in the loop, you guys even wrote alternate implementation of this stuff already, you guys discussed it in detail at the last UDS. And I was very nice to you by keeping the systemd name out of it and documenting it on fdo, and Bastien even showed you how easy it is two build the relevant systemd components without having to adopt systemd all the way. So you have multiple ways out of your perceived problem! So, what more do you want? There's nothing to complain about. Instead, I'd very much appreciate a "thank you" though. > It seems to me that this would be a good usage of Freedesktop.
