If cgconfig is not to be used for mounting cgroup hierarchies then why did lennart change systemd to accomodate cgconfig specified configuration? > My plan is not > to do further development of cgconfig except for bugfixes, and in > general redirect everyone to systemd.

What about resource allocation to groups. Is lennart willing to provide cgconfig equivalent interfaces to preconfigure resources allocated to cgroups. I just want to make sure that lennart is in sync and agrees with taking over the functionality provided by libcgroup. Last time I talked to him, he was of the opinion that I just want to pick some sane defaults for systemd and let libcgroup still do its work and he did not propose to take over resource allocation and task classification functionality of libcgroup. BTW, with cgconfig and task classification out of libcgroup what's left in libcgroup? Primarily abstraction provided for various controllers so that user does not have to be aware of absolute paths? And there are some command line tools.
