Kay, Olav, I think that we're being a bit unfair towards Michael. There's an implication that his posts were offensive, but they weren't. Overly verbose, yes, repetitive, yes, agitated, etc, but not intended as rude. Michael started by reporting valid problems, with a setup in which systemd is involved, even if not the culprit. So closing the discussion by concentrating on style is not the right way, imho. Michael, please step back, compile the latest (git) version of systemd, and report _specific_ things that can be improved.
