In my opinion systemd is violating one of the 4 freeedoms of GPL: Freedom 1 (as well as the *NIX and KISS philosophy) * The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this. It's really time for a re-definition of Free Software, not only basing such definitions solely on the license at hand. It is also a matter of freedoms of the users of software. Especially in view of that most Free Software nowadays is developed by commercial players, having their own agenda, actively alienating their users (and non-paid, spare time developers).
could please you explain me your point of view? I can see systemd's source code published on github with the license guaranteeing me that I can study it and fork it to change it. Best regards, S_W
