'dropped from any "new revision" of the EXAMS' (not distribution)β BTW, this does not mean objectives that are still supported via backward compatible mechanisms should be dropped. E.g., I would _not_ drop LSB Sys-V Init basics as systemd does very much support them, including various tags. I would only drop/replace some of the areas where they no longer apply for Sys-V in systemd, like covering "targets" instead of the old "run-levels."
