This isn't personal. It's a list of requirements that indicate where we need to be in order to ship systemd as the default in Fedora 14. It doesn't matter whose "fault" it is -- if it doesn't work, we can't ship it broken. If it's possible to fix some now-exposed underlying issue by backing out of systemd, and release engineering / FESCO deterimines that that's the best fix, it doesn't mean systemd is a failure. It means that Fedora wasn't ready for it yet. Obviously if the item in question fails both with systemd and upstart, it's a different sort of blocker. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@mattdm.org> Senior Systems Architect -- Instructional & Research Computing Services Harvard School of Engineering & Applied Sciences -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
