When I became a Gentoo developer, 8 years ago, Gentoo had the most advanced init system of any distribution. It still works exactly the same, openrc being just a mostly pointless effort to re-do the same thing in C. systemd is where the innovation is today and we, Gentoo, should get on board or be left behind. And GNOME is indeed in the driving seat for much of the innovation in system components these days, because as Gnome developers, we fix the system components instead of working around their bugs. -- Olivier Crête tes...@gentoo.org Gentoo Developer
