I have commented on the bug. TLDR: they have never been formalized as fdo spec, but they are documented by systemd and are official API of it. if you want to make them an fdo spec, by all means go ahead, you have my support, but I am not going to do the work, for me personally systemd docs are good enough ;-) Lennart -- Lennart Poettering, Red Hat _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list xdg@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
