 To me, it sounds like Beyond Lennart, but you might need to use
lowercase if that is the case [ yeah, I did pay attention when you
got asked to not capitalize systemd ].  Call it whatever you wish.

 The more I look at systemd, the more I distrust it - it gives every
appearance of either being designed for windows developers, or of
change for the sake of it.  So, I'm glad that your commits to this
branch will no longer appear in my book mailbox.

 Apparently, some people think systemd is "the way forward", so if
that is indeed the case then you will have many users.  Enjoy.

 At least one of us will turn out to have been wrong, maybe both of
us (for continuing to build from source "because we can").  But I
will wish you well with this fork, whilst doing everything I can to
avoid it 8)
