meh. I should start comparing to Stalin, Bismark or any other totalitarian. it's still freaking totalitarian. Only because Lennart things what he's doing is good, that's not enough, who knows what he'll do with this amount of power over all distros. History aqcuited Linus because of his work and his knowledge transfer over time, but this guy is a total wacko. If you're a totalitarian, then damn consume your time in helping out people to understand your freaking code, not like Lennart. SystemD *may* improve in time, but many things, and I say *many* will remain scars because of his attitude. Or maybe, better said: the pink-tailed g@yeek will ever grow up? I didn't grow up with his programming power, nor his code, but I would never piss on the people that trust me. Nor do I sell my soul to some Red Hat monarchism-loving corporates. I dunno what law governs Lennart, maybe egoism or egocentrism (when I was at the FOSDEM, he absolutely blew up when I told him that an alternative should always exist. He absolutely blew up again when I told him (the public + him included) 'everyone knows Lennart's code is awful'. What's that gotta tell ya?), but I sure know he's a total maniac. Hope he learns from Linus, or at least make himself a SystemD NGO to keep things formally balanced, I dunno. Hell loads of psychical problems with that guy, that I cannot even think of concluding even one actual and practical solution!
So yeah, go with SystemD, trust Lennart. It's all I have to say. If you really believe in that guy, I refrain myself from any other critics. @Ian Godwin law is funny, we all "respect it" from time to time, although my case is strictly about totalitarianism, not only Hitler or the nazis.
