I was going to no. no, no, no it is not. it is meant to provide a few very basic DBus interfaces who expose an API similar to systemd ones. this is necessary for porting some GNOME components that depend on them. most of these DBus interfaces (hostnamed, localed, timedated) have method/properties that map straight to OpenBSD's standard library. the last one, logind, is quite complicated and most of my work will concern setting up a framework for future development. > propose, if nobody else had, to work to replace systemd.

The devs are i am not personally a fan of systemd either, i don't intend to "bring systemd to openbsd" or anything like that. my code will still have to stand up to the usual caliber openbsd ports are subject to, there are no special guarantees because i am a gsoc student. thanks ian
