lear stand, what will developers (throughout the tree) will be maintaining. If a user installs a component he does expect it to work and maintained. And we cannot force all developers to support two different layouts, and we cannot allow developers to support layout of their choice, as users will get a totally broken solution, because of the aspirations of developer/herd they get different level of support. I don't care if systemd is worked on by people, however it must be clearly mark as unstable as long as there is no decision to switch. Regards, Alon Bar-Lev
