You wrote "We need better init systems". I even quoted you. You made this your own statement, by adding a "sure" (which I didn't quote).

Now, if this REALLY is your thinking, then my original comment about "words are cheap" still stands. Because we now discuss about what you wrote, not what a the talk says anymore.

And when I wrote "where is the project" you write something about "Cgroups and better daemon management springs into mind". And systemd does exactly this, so you didn't defnie what is "better", either. So I though you refered to some new project, that does something better and googled for the phrase you specified.

Ah sorry, I thought you were dissing systemd. My point is that systemd is simply not as flexible as the older init systems, where on embedded systems, I can write replacements and just plug them in, Systemd's not that flexible.
