Yay! The idea is even better than I expected! 2014-12-27 4:48 GMT-02:00 Ertugrul Söylemez <ert...@gmx.de>: > Note that > systemd is not just an init system. >
This is my first problem - systemd is a bit bloated and mysterious. I don't like the idea of big blobs doing everything on a system. It becomes harder to maintain and modify, and even to modularize. But, modifyng the way we treat about services and modules is revolutionary! It is just like Nix is for package management, applied to system maintainance :) > > As a final bonus this is so difficult and ugly to solve with systemd > that we would feel a much greater temptation to get rid of it. =) > > Let me know what you think.

We can even to switch the supervisor/init without worries about a complete rewriting of services. There is some I am searching about: * http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/openrc/ * http://supervisord.org/ * http://uselessd.darknedgy.net/ * http://skarnet.org/software/s6/ Some comparisons: * http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Comparison_of_init_systems * https://lwn.net/Articles/578209/ * https://lwn.net/Articles/578210/ I am not even a junior-seasoned programmer, not even on functional paradigm, but I wanna help. > > Greets, > Ertugrul Greets!
